The generalized assignment problem (GAP) examines the maximum profit assignment of jobs to processors such that each job is assigned to precisely one processor subject to capacity restrictions on the processors. Due to the fact that the GAP is an NP-hard integer program dual prices are not...

The multiple-choice nested knapsack problem (MCKP) is a generalization of the ordinary knapsack problem, where the set of items is partitioned into classes. The binary choice of selecting an item is replaced by taking exactly one item out of each class of items. Due to the fact that the MCKP is...

Single round robin tournaments are a well known class of sports leagues schedules. We consider leagues with a set T of n teams where n is even. Costs are associated to each possible match. The goal is to find the minimum cost tournament among those having the minimum number of breaks. We pick up...

This paper addresses the multiple criteria flight gate assignment problem under uncertainty, which is naturally modeled by fuzzy numbers. The problem examined is a special kind of multicriteria multi-mode resource-constrained project scheduling problem with generalized precedence constraints or...
