Facets for node packing

Article Abstract:

A FORTRAN-based Node Packing Problem program was developed that proved superior to previous node packing problem algorithm. The efficiency and effectivity of the algorithm is based on the constraints used to impose the node packing restrictions, and the newly developed algorithm used the Maximal Cliques and Reduced Nodal Constraints formulation. This allowed the algorithm to tackle problems with more nodes and higher density in graphs.
