Constraint Programming (CP) has been successful in a number of combinatorial search and discrete optimisation problems. Yet other more traditional approaches, such as Integer Programming (IP), can ...

Mathematical programming with vanishing constraints (MPVC) represents a challenging class of optimisation problems where certain constraints become inactive—or “vanish”—depending on specific ...

This paper shows how a stochastic programming model for least-cost feed formulations under a probabilistic protein constraint and other linear restrictions can be solved by using an iterative ...
