NETGEN-II: A System for Generating Structured Network-Based Mathematical Programming Test Problems

摘要

The increased importance of designing and implementing algorithms to solve particular management problems has created the need for more robust test problem generators that can match the overall structure and parameter values of these problems. Of particular interest are management problems that can be modeled using a network structure. This paper discussed the design of a system for generating network-based mathematical programming test problems that conform to user-supplied structural & parameter characteristics. (Author)
