implemented by solving a knapsack problem. This is used by the Karmarkar-Karp bin packing algorithms. Let f be a convex function on Rn. The set K = { ( x , t...

Branch and bound algorithms have a number of advantages over algorithms that only use cutting planes. One advantage is that the algorithms can be terminated...
