Minimize the number of racks to store all pallets in a warehouse, freeing space for other activities and allowing company growth.
Given available resources, what mix of products will maximize profit? We can answer to question using Excel and the Solver add-in.
Formulating logic conditions in linear programs can be difficult. This two-part article series explains how, using easy to follow steps.
We compare a linear programming model written using Julia/JuMP with the same model written using Python/Pyomo.
We've collated links to dozens of websites about optimization modelling. The links are organized into several categories.
Academic research papers can be tremendously valuable. But only if they are complete. So, academics, please publish your data and code.
Using the SciPy library, we find an optimal solution to Aryabhata's approximation of trigonometric functions using ratios of quadratic polynomials.
The selection of a better fantasy sports team can substantially improve performance. Excel plus OpenSolver can pick an optimal team.
Job sequencing is a common problem. Excel Solver can help you make optimal job sequencing decisions to minimize cost.
We explore methods to decide the best order for positioning devices in a rack: enumerate, heuristic, constraint programming, and linear program.
Given available stock of wire and a list of pieces required, what is the best way to cut the stock to fulfil demand while minimizing waste?
