Spaces of infinite dimension have played an increasing role in the last four decades concerning their applications in models both for economics and for finance. The intertemporal allocation of resources, commodity differentiation, uncertainty, dynamics of the fundamental variables of financial...

"Both process planning and scheduling are very important functions of manufacturing, which affects together the cost to manufacture a product and the time to deliver it. This book contains various approaches proposed by researchers, to integrate the process planning and scheduling functions of...

The focus of this thesis is to contribute to the development of new, exact solution approaches to different combinatorial optimization problems. In particular, we derive dedicated algorithms for a special class of Traveling Tournament Problems (TTPs), the Dial-A-Ride Problem (DARP), and the...
