A decomposition approach for the fuel-constrained economic power-dispatch problem
Article Abstract:
A general model for the economic power dispatch problem with fuel constraints in an electric company is presented. The mathematical formulation is non-convex in general. An alternative formulation in which the non-linearity is moved to the objective function is suggested. Numerical results show substantial improvement in the number of iterations and computer time needed to solve the power-dispatch problem.

A column generation based decomposition algorithm for a parallel machine just-in-time scheduling problem
Article Abstract:
A parallel machine just-in-time scheduling problem was studied after which a decomposition algorithm based on column generation was proposed. The problem was first formulated as an integer program in a set partitioning problem using Dantzig-Wolfe decomposition, from which an algorithm was developed. Computational results show that the algorithm has the capacity to solve problems with up to 60 jobs.
