Paving and computing the set of nondominated points for the bi-objective 0/1 uncapacitated facility location problem

The paper presents a three-phase algorithm to compute the set of nondominated points for the binary version of the uncapacitated facility location problem with two objectives. The first phase constructs a paving in objective space which is a collection of boxes that covers all nondominated points. The paving procedure is a branch and bound algorithm … Read more

Surrogate upper bound sets for bi-objective bi-dimensional binary knapsack problems

The paper deals with the definition and the computation of surrogate upper bound sets for the bi-objective bi-dimensional binary knapsack problem. It introduces the Optimal Convex Surrogate Upper Bound set, which is the tightest possible definition based on the convex relaxation of the surrogate relaxation. Two exact algorithms are proposed: an enumerative algorithm and its … Read more
