ABSTRACT
The course will introduce the most relevant classes of optimization problems defined on graphs (or networks), e.g.: the travelling salesman problem; vehicle routing and inventory routing problems; the graph coloring problem; network design problems. All these classes of problems have relevant properties from the theoretical viewpoint and have several applications in the area of logistics, telecommunications and service network design. Exact and/or heuristic/metaheuristic solution approaches will be introduced, and some case-study from real applications will be described.
