OPTIMIZATION WITH EXCEL

Optimization in One Variable Using Solver This chapter will illustrate the use of an Excel tool called Solver to solve optimization problems from calculus To check that your installation of Excel has Solver, select the Tools menu bar If you see Solver as one of the options, you are ready to go Otherwise, you will have to add it in See the

Chapter 10 Optimization: More than One Choice Variable

• Chapter 9: maxx u(x) one choice variable: x (consumption) • Chapter 10: maxx,y u(x, y) two choice variables: x, y (leisure) • Chapter 11: maxx,y u(x, y t )s x px + y py = I, where px, py are exogenous prices and I is exogenous income • With one choice variable, the f o c is defined by setting u’(x) equal to zero Note that u = u

INTRODUCTION TO DISCRETE VARIABLE OPTIMIZATION 1 Introduction

discrete values and variable 3 has 4 possible discrete values A branch and bound tree might look like Fig 4 1 given below In this tree, "Level 1" represents the nodes where variable 1 is allowed to be discrete and variables 2 and 3 are continuous For "Level 2," variables 1 and 2 are discrete; only variable 3 is continuous

Math 407A: Linear Optimization

If a variable x i has lower bound l i which is not zero (l i x i) or equivalently, 0 x i l i, one obtains a non-negative variable w i:= x i l i yielding the substitution x i = w i + l i: In this case, the bound l i x i is equivalent to the bound 0 w i variables with upper bounds If a variable x i has an upper bound u i (x i u i), or

Unconstrained Optimization: Single Variable
