We present a constraint-and-column generation algorithm to solve two-stage robust optimization problems. Compared with existing Benders style cutting plane methods, it is a general procedure with a unified approach to deal with optimality and feasibility. A computational study on a two-stage robust location-transportation problem shows that it performs an order of magnitude faster. Also, it reveals a linkage between two-stage robust optimization and stochastic programming, which may benefits our understanding on both of them.
