Abstract

The cooperation between the Mathematical Programming (MP) and Constraint Programming (CP) paradigms has come to focus in the recent years. The impossibility of solving bigger instances alone and the apparently complementarity between the two approaches pushes towards further researches on hybrid methods. We can define a linear binary optimization problem as (P) { min c.x: Ax≤ b, x茂戮驴 Bn}, where xis a binary variable, A茂戮驴 Rm×nis the constraint matrix, b茂戮驴 Rmis the right-hand side vector and c茂戮驴 Rnis the objective function.
