This paper describes the development of a mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model for the standard N-job, M-machine flowshop sequencing problem. Based on an earlier all-integer model developed ...

Diet models based on goal programming (GP) are valuable tools in designing diets that comply with nutritional, palatability and cost constraints. Results derived from GP models are usually very ...

Mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) optimisation constitutes a critical methodology in tackling complex decision-making problems where both discrete choices and continuous variables are ...
