Algorithms and hardware for the solution of set partitioning problems

This thesis is concerned with an integer linear programming problem, called the set partitioning problem. The problem is: minimize cx, subject to Ax=e, where A is a binary matrix, e is a column of ones, and c is a cost vector. Despite its particularly simple structure, the set partitioning problem h...
