Integer Programming Laurence A. Wolsey's * is an English-language textbook aimed at professionals in applied mathematics and optimization. This reference work covers integer programming and is suitable for the development and application of algorithms for discrete and integer variables.
The second edition provides extensive and up-to-date information on optimization problems with discrete variables. The book includes information on recent developments in mixed integer programming, with an emphasis on improved preprocessing, new primal heuristics, and the application of decomposition techniques such as column generation and Benders’ decomposition. This edition includes information on the substantial speedup of commercial solvers and practical examples.
The chapter on advanced algorithms and optimization techniques makes this edition a practical and relevant reference book for specialists in this field.
