    We consider the 0-1 Penalized Knapsack Problem (PKP). Each item has a profit, a weight and a penalty and the goal is to maximize the sum of the profits minus the greatest penalty value of the items included in a solution. We propose an exact approach relying on a procedure which narrows the relevant range … Read more

    In the last few decades, the search for exact algorithms for known NP-hard geometric problems has intensified. Many of these solutions make use of Integer Linear Programming (ILP) modeling and rely on state of the art solvers, to be able to find optimal solutions for large instances in a matter of minutes. In this work, … Read more
