An optimization problem is one where you have to make the best decision (choose the best investments, minimize your company’s costs, find the class schedule with the fewest morning classes, or so on).

Integer programming is a crucial branch of mathematical optimisation that focuses on problems where some or all decision variables are constrained to be integers. This field underpins many practical ...

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 ...
