Mathematical programming discriminant analysis models must be normalised to prevent the generation of discriminant functions in which the variable coefficients and the constant term are zero. This ...

Integer programming, a cornerstone of combinatorial optimisation, focuses on the selection of discrete decision variables to solve complex real‐world problems such as scheduling, network design and ...

In this paper, we give an applications-oriented survey of geometric programming. This important class of nonlinear programming problems has been intensively studied over the past decade and has played ...
