An exact algorithm for the pickup and delivery problem with time windows and requests split across multiple stacks

Ali Mehsin Alyasiry, Michael Forbes, Ella Wang

This paper addresses an extension of the pickup and delivery problem with time windows and multiple stacks (PDPTWMS). We call the new extension the pickup and delivery problem with…

Active Set methods for solving large sample average approximations of chance constrained optimisation problems

Rick Jeuken, Michael Forbes

This article describes a novel approach to chance-constrained programming based on the sample average approximation (SAA) method. Recent work focuses on heuristic approximations to…

Logic-Based benders Decomposition for Wildfire Suppression

Mitchell G Harris, Michael A Forbes, Thomas Taimre

We study the problem of locating fire suppression resources in a burning landscape in order to minimise the total area burned. The landscape is modelled as a directed graph, with n…

Combining Optimisation and Simulation Using Logic-Based Benders Decomposition

Michael Forbes, Mitchell Harris, Marijn Jansen +2

Operations research practitioners frequently want to model complicated functions that are are difficult to encode in their underlying optimisation framework. A common approach is t…

Disaggregated Benders decomposition and lazy constraints for solving the budget-constrained dynamic uncapacitated facility location and network design problem

Robin H Pearce, Michael Forbes

We present an approach for solving to optimality the budget-constrained Dynamic Uncapacitated Facility Location and Network Design problem (DUFLNDP). This is a problem where a netw…

Column Generation and Lazy Constraints for solving the Liner Ship Fleet Repositioning Problem with cargo flows

Robin H. Pearce, Alexis Tyler, Michael Forbes

We consider an important problem in the shipping industry known as the liner shipping fleet repositioning problem (LSFRP). We examine a public data set for this problem including m…

Disaggregated Benders Decomposition for solving a Network Maintenance Scheduling Problem

Robin H. Pearce, Michael Forbes

We consider a problem concerning a network and a set of maintenance requests to be undertaken. We wish to schedule the maintenance in such a way as to minimise the impact on the to…
