Synopsis:

The course focuses on the issue of the use of directed graphs in transport and logistics systems, undirected graphs tree type, planar graphs and their coloring. Further distribution problems, covering and location tasks are formulated and solved such as models of integer linear programming. Besides the use of exact methods there are described simple and also more sofisticated heuristics (metaheuristics) methods.

Requirements:

basics of graph theory and mathematical programming
