American Journal of Operations Research (AJOR) is an international scientific journal dedicated to the publication and public discussion of high quality, original papers that contribute to the methodology of operational research and to the practice of decision making. AJOR contains the following types of papers: (1)In…

This work has successfully shown that the optimum of a quadratic response function with zero coefficients except that of the quadratic term lies at the origin. This was achieved by using optimal designs technique for solving unconstrained optimization problem…

A Linear Programming DASH diet model for persons with hypertension has previously been formulated and daily minimum cost diet plans that satisfy the DASH diets’ tolerable intake level of the nutrients for 1500 mg a day Sodium level and different daily calorie…

This paper investigates the effect of launching multiple weapons against an area target of normally distributed elements. We provide an analytical form of the average damage fraction and then apply it to obtain optimal aimpoints. To facilitate the computation…

For the transportation problem, Sharma and Sharma [ 1 ] have given a very computationally efficient heuristic (runs in O(c*n 2 ) time) to give very good dual solution to transportation problem. Sharma and Prasad [ 2 ] have given an efficient heuristic (comple…

We reduce lot sizing problem with (a) Set Up, Production, Shortage and Inventory Costs to lot sizing problem with (b) Set Up, Production, and Inventory Costs. For lot sizing problem (as in (b)), Pochet and Wolsey [ 1 ] have given already integral polyhedral w…

Formulation of SLCLSP given by Pochet and Wolsey [ 1 ] had set up, variables, inventory and shortage cost. We give a new reformulation where SLCLSP is reduced to set up and inventory variables. We find that this reformulation has less number of real variables…

A more efficient method of locating the optimum of a second order response function was of interest in this work. In order to do this, the principles of optimal designs of experiment is invoked and used for this purpose. At the end, it was discovered that the…

In the Covering Salesman Problem (CSP), a distribution of nodes is provided, and the objective is to identify the shortest-length tour of a subset of all given nodes such that each node is not on the tour which is within a radius r of any node on the tour. In…

An algorithm is proposed in this paper for solving two-dimensional bi-level linear programming problems without making a graph. Based on the classification of constraints, algorithm removes all redundant constraints, which eliminate the possibility of cycling…

The solutions of Linear Programming Problems by the segmentation of the cuboidal response surface through the Super Convergent Line Series methodologies were obtained. The cuboidal response surface was segmented up to four segments, and explored. It was verif…
