This paper addresses the airport flight gate assignment problem with multiple objectives. The objectives are to maximize the total flight gate preferences, to minimize the number of towing activities and to minimize the absolute deviation of the new gate assignment from a so-called reference...

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...

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...
