Abstract

We present a B&B algorithm for solving the general mixed-integer-linear programming model (MILP). The algorithm, herein referred to as the implicit branch-and-bound algorithm (IBBA), avoids the shortcomings of computer round-off error and excessive storage requirements from which usual B&B algorithms suffer. In its present form, the algorithm is effective but not yet efficient.
