Advanced Water Solutions, Inc.
Chatburn, Lucy; Baucells Alibés, ManelCaso AD-289-EAnálisis de decisiones, EconomíaThe case describes the problem of how to arrange a combination of pipes into containers of fixed dimensions, each container also having a maximum space and weight allowance. This problem can be solved using linear programming (LP). The application of LP is not trivial because it requires a technique called column generation, or listing all the feasible combinations that might be used.Desde 8,20 €
