Abstract

When faced with a difficult problem, the integer programmer is apt to take the common approach of finding a related easier problem and solving that instead. In other disciplines this means approximating the data, making simplifying assumptions, etc.; in integer programming, the idea is to find a "relaxation" of the original problem.

This paper gives three examples of relaxations being used in integer programming.
