To compare optimization modelling in Excel and Python, we replicate a Python model then compare it with an equivalent Excel implementation.
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?
This series of 13 articles compares Python libraries Pyomo, PuLP, OR-Tools, Gekko, CVXPY, and SciPy for building a linear programming model.
Formulating logic conditions in linear programs can be difficult. This two-part article series explains how, using easy to follow steps.
We report our experience of Copilot coding a non-trivial optimization model, focussing on what went well and what didn't go well as the model evolves.
We present an example of project crashing using an optimization model to help the project manager decide what to do.
We explore two aspects of refactoring an existing optimization model: Modularization and adding model variations.
Sometimes we need more power to solve a model. This article describes how to solve a model using the CPLEX solver via the NEOS Server.
Job sequencing is a common problem. Excel Solver can help you make optimal job sequencing decisions to minimize cost.
This article replicates and extends a transportation optimization model for managing a COVID-19 vaccination plan in Hong Kong.
A new role mining model is claimed to be more tractable and practical. We test that assertion using constraint programming and MILP.
