    Simulation und Optimierung einer PC-Fertigung unter Echtzeitbedingungen (1995)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Die Business Unit PC in Augsburg ist die zentrale Produktionsstätte der Siemens--Nixdorf Informationssysteme (SNI) AG für Personal Computer sowie für einige Periphärgeräte. Das Werk, entworfen nach modernen CIM/CAI--Konzepten (Computer Integrated Manufacturing/ Computer Aided Industry), wurde 1987 errichtet. Bald zeigte sich jedoch, daß es für ein zu geringes Produktionsvolumen ausgelegt war und einige Komponenten des Systems Engpässe im Produktionsbetrieb darstellen. Das Management suchte nach Möglichkeiten, den Produktionsfluß zu verbessern, ohne teure technische Änderungen am System vornehmen zu müssen. Eine Forschungsgruppe des Konrad--Zuse--Zentrums für Informationstechnik (die ehemals an der Universität Augsburg ansässig war) analysierte, unterstützt von einigen Studenten und Ingenieuren der SNI, den Produktionsfluß und lokalisierte Schwachstellen. Basierend auf diesen Erkenntnissen wurden mathematische Fragestellungen erarbeitet und auf mathematischen Optimierungsverfahren basierende Softwarepakete entwickelt, die jetzt teilweise bei SNI im Einsatz sind. Im folgenden werden einige dieser Fragestellungen, deren Modellierung und mathematische Behandlung beschrieben. Einige der Ansätze, die hier dargestellt werden sollen, sind teilweise schon in Grötschel [Grö92] angesprochen worden.

    Optimierung des Fahrzeugumlaufs im Öffentlichen Nahverkehr (1996)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: This paper addresses the problem of scheduling vehicles in a public mass transportation system. We show how this problem can be modelled as a special multicommodity flow problem and outline the solution methodology we have developed. Based on polyhedral investigations, we have designed and implemented a branch&cut algorithm and various heuristics with which real vehicle scheduling problems of truely large scale can be solved to optimality. We describe some implementation issues and report computational results.

    A polyhedral study of the asymmetric travelling salesman problem with time windows (1997)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: The asymmetric travelling salesman problem with time windows (ATSP-TW) is a basic model for scheduling and routing applications. In this paper we present a formulation of the problem involving only 0/1-variables associated with the arcs of the underlying digraph. This has the advantage of avoiding additional variables as well as the associated (typically very ineffective) linking constraints. In the formulation, time window restrictions are modelled by means of ``infeasible path elimination'' constraints. We present the basic form of these constraints along with some possible strengthenings. Several other classes of valid inequalities derived from related asymmetric travelling salesman problems are also described, along with a lifting theorem. We also study the ATSP-TW polytope, $P_{TW}$, defined as the convex hull of the integer solutions of our model. We show that determining the dimension of $P_{TW}$ is strongly {\em NP}--complete problem, even if only one time window is present. In this latter case, we provide a minimal equation system for $P_{TW}$. Computational experiments on the new formulation are reported in a companion paper [1997] where we show that it outperforms alternative formulations on some classes of problem instances.

    Cost-Efficient Network Synthesis from Leased Lines (1997)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: Given a communication demand between each pair of nodes of a network we consider the problem of deciding what capacity to install on each edge of the network in order to minimize the building cost of the network and to satisfy the demand between each pair of nodes. The feasible capacities that can be leased from a network provider are of a particular kind in our case. There are a few so-called basic capacities having the property that every basic capacity is an integral multiple of every smaller basic capacity. An edge can be equipped with a capacity only if it is an integer combination of the basic capacities. We treat, in addition, several restrictions on the routings of the demands (length restriction, diversification) and failures of single nodes or single edges. We formulate the problem as a mixed integer linear programming problem and develop a cutting plane algorithm as well as several heuristics to solve it. We report on computational results for real world data.

    Design of Broadband Virtual Private Networks: Model and Heuristics for the B–WiN (1998)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-11-11
    Description: We investigate the problem of designing survivable broadband virtual private networks that employ the Open Shortest Path First (OSPF) routing protocol to route the packages. The capacities available for the links of the network are a minimal capacity plus multiples of a unit capacity. Given the directed communication demands between all pairs of nodes, we wish to select the capacities in a such way, that even in case of a single node or a single link failure a specified percentage of each demand can be satisfied and the costs for these capacities are minimal. We present a mixed--integer linear programming formulation of this problem and several heuristics for its solution. Furthermore, we report on computational results with real-world data.

    Order Picking in an Automatic Warehouse: Solving Online Asymmetric TSPs (1998)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: We report on a joint project with industry that had the aim to sequence transportation requests within an automatic storage system in such a way that the overall travel time is minimized. The manufacturing environment is such that scheduling decisions have to be made before all jobs are known. We have modeled this task as an \emph{online} Asymmetric Traveling Salesman Problem (ATSP). Several heuristics for the online ATSP are compared computationally within a simulation environment to judge which should be used in practice. Compared to the priority rule used so far, the optimization package reduced the unloaded travel time by about 40~\%. Because of these significant savings our procedure was implemented as part of the control software for the stacker cranes of the storage systems.

    Combinatorial Online Optimization (1998)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2020-11-13
    Description: In ``classical'' optimization, all data of a problem instance are considered given. The standard theory and the usual algorithmic techniques apply to such cases only. Online optimization is different. Many decisions have to be made before all data are available. In addition, decisions once made cannot be changed. How should one act ``best'' in such an environment? In this paper we survey online problems coming up in combinatorial optimization. We first outline theoretical concepts, such as competitiveness against various adversaries, to analyze online problems and algorithms. The focus, however, lies on real-world applications. We report, in particular, on theoretical investigations and our practical experience with problems arising in transportation and the automatic handling of material.

    Scientific Information Systems and Metadata (1998)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2014-02-26
    Description: This article begins with a short survey on the history of the classification of knowledge. It briefly discusses the traditional means of keeping track of scientific progress, i.e., collecting, classifying, abstracting, and reviewing all publications in a field. The focus of the article, however, is on modern electronic information and communication systems that try to provide high-quality information by automatic document retrieval or by using metadata, a new tool to guide search engines. We report, in particular, on efforts of this type made jointly by a number of German scientific societies. A full version of this paper including all hypertext references, links to online papers and references to the literature can be found under the URL: {\tt http://elib.zib.de/math.org.softinf.pub} .
