Let \(G\)
be a connected graph, \(n\)
the order of \(G\)
, and \(f\)
(resp. \(t\)
)

Let <i>G</i> be a multigraph containing no minor isomorphic to <i>K</i><sub>3,3</sub> or <i>K</i><sub>5</sub><i>e</i> (where <i>K</i><sub>5</sub><i>e</i> de...
BibTeX reference
We study several formulations of the channel assignment problem in an FDMA network as a linear integer 0-1 program. We consider the objective of minimizing...

In this article we propose a mixed 0-1 linear programming model for the topological network design problem with modular switches such as the ones that will ...
BibTeX reference
We present an overview of the exact methods for channel assignment in cellular networks together with a new linear 0-1 column generation formulation. After ...
BibTeX reference
We describe a method of channel assignment for cellular telephone systems (in which a limited number of rearrangements are allowed) that gives good performa...
BibTeX reference
We present a 0-1 column generation model for channel block assignment in a cellular network, with the objective of minimizing the interference level. Priori...
