Abstract

A number of models of complex economical and engineering systems are formulated as optimization problems of large dimension in which certain variables are discrete (integer). In view of the hierarchical structure of constraints, one can distinguish in the set of variables the subsets (subsystems) associated with the presence of a small number of common variables and constraints. Such are many problems of branch planning, design of data processing systems, planning of manufacturing corporations, and resource allocation in manufacturing and engineering systems (see the survey [2]).
