integer linear programming problems are significant in many areas, and there exist many classic methods to deal with such problems. Based on the intuition that a proper pre-estimation of those problems may help find a good initial point that is relatively closed to the final solution, we constructed a framework to do such pre-estimate by introducing . We proposed two methods to estimate by trials and by direct estimation. In a case study our method reduces about 7% of computational expense compared to the Branch and Bound Algorithm.

Quaternary-code (QC) designs, an attractive class of nonregular fractional factorial designs, have received much attention due to their theoretical elegance and practical applicability. Some recent works of QC designs revealed their good properties over their regular counterparts under commonly used criteria. We develop an optimization tool that can maximize the generalized resolution of a QC design of a given size. The problem can be recast as an integer linear programming (ILP) problem through a linear simplification that combines the k-and a-equations, even though the generalized resolution does not linearly depend on the aliasing indexes. The ILP surprisingly improves a class of (1/16)th-fraction QC designs with higher generalized resolutions. It also applies to obtain some (1/64) th-fraction QC designs with maximum generalized resolutions, and these QC designs generally have higher generalized resolutions than the regular designs of the same size.

Static multi-issue machines, such as traditional Very Long Instructional Word (VLIW) architectures, move complexity from the hardware to the compiler. This is motivated by the ability to support high degrees of instruction-level parallelism without requiring complicated scheduling logic in the processor hardware. The simpler-control hardware results in reduced area and power consumption, but leads to a challenge of engineering a compiler with good code-generation quality. Transport triggered architectures (TTA), and other so-called exposed datapath architectures, take the compiler-oriented philosophy even further by pushing more details of the datapath under software control. The main benefit of this is the reduced register file pressure, with a drawback of adding even more complexity to the compiler side. In this article, we propose an integer linear programming (ILP)-based instruction scheduling model for TTAs. The model describes the architecture characteristics, the particular processor resource constraints, and the operation dependencies of the scheduled program. The model is validated and measured by compiling application kernels to various TTAs with a different number of datapath components and connectivity. In the best case, the cycle count is reduced to 52% when compared to a heuristic scheduler. In addition to producing shorter schedules, the number of register accesses in the compiled programs is generally notably less than those with the heuristic scheduler;in the best case, the ILP scheduler reduced the number of register file reads to 33% of the heuristic results and register file writes to 18%. On the other hand, as expected, the ILP-based scheduler uses distinctly more time to produce a schedule than the heuristic scheduler, but the compilation time is within tolerable limits for production-code generation.

Unwrapping is a crucial step when analyzing ground displacements with InSAR techniques. Formulations of unwrapping as integer linear programming (ILP) problem suitable for PSInSAR were given by Costantini et al. under the name redundant integration of finite differences and by Shanker et al. under the name edge list algorithm. They allow the treatment of "4D"-graphs, in the sense of making use of the redundancy both in the PS-net and temporal graph, in a consistent way. This important advantage is paid for by a high computational load, which for large graphs even might prevent the algorithm from finishing in an acceptable time. The approach presented in this paper suggests subdividing the graph into spatio-temporal regions, thereby maintaining the advantage of redundancy, and solving the corresponding ILPs. This results in a considerable acceleration. Besides explaining our approach we report on results obtained for simulated and real data.

Joint inference approaches such as integer linear programming (ILP) and Markov Logic Networks (MLNs) have recently been successfully applied to many natural language processing (NLP) tasks, often outperforming their pipeline counterparts. However, MLNs are arguably much less popular among NLP researchers than ILP. While NLP researchers who desire to employ these joint inference frameworks do not necessarily have to understand their theoretical underpinnings, it is imperative that they understand which of them should be applied under what circumstances. With the goal of helping NLP researchers better understand the relative strengths and weaknesses of MLNs and ILP;we will compare them along different dimensions of interest, such as expressiveness, ease of use, scalability, and performance. To our knowledge, this is the first systematic comparison of ILP and MLNs on an NLP task.

Automatic single-document summarization is a process that receives a single input document and outputs a condensed version with only the most relevant information. This paper proposes an unsupervised concept-based approach for single-document summarization using integer linear programming (ILP). Such an approach maximizes the coverage of the important concepts in the summary, avoiding redundancy, and taking into consideration some readability aspects of the generated summary as well. A new weighting method that combines both coverage and position of the sentences is proposed to estimate the importance of a concept. Moreover, a weighted distribution strategy that prioritizes sentences at the beginning of the document if they have relevant concepts is investigated. The readability of the generated summaries is improved by the inclusion of constraints into the ILP model to avoid dangling coreferences and breaks in the normal discourse flow of the document. Experimental results on the DUC 2001-2002 and the CNN corpora demonstrated that the proposed approach is competitive with state-of-the-art summarizers evaluated regarding the traditional ROUGE scores.

Wireless Sensor Network is huge number of sensor nodes disposed randomly in severe field to gather data. It monitors physical phenominan changes such as temperature, pressure, humidity, solar radition, ambident light extra. Sensor nodes are small in size, having less energy, less communication power, less cost and multi functional nodes. This paper we firstly discuss about different types types of network, protocols extra i. e Network such as Direct network, hierarchical network etc and protocols like LEACH, PEGASIS. Next in this paper we deployed sensor nodes randomly in the grid network, We focus on data aggregation in different type of sitution known as critical zone, in critical zone(critical grid) senor nodes are heavly loaded with information. Our objective is to maximize the data generation rate of sensor nodes. To got this objective we form different integer linear programming formulation. A optimization tool such as CPLEX IBM ILOG used for optimization and to show critical grids aggregation used MATLAB.

One main challenge in network virtualization is known as virtual network embedding(VNE). VNE is NP-hard and most algorithms in the literature are heuristic. This paper presents an exact algorithm based on the integer linear programming(ILP). The exact algorithm aims to simultaneously minimize the cost of substrate network and average virtual link delay of mapped VNRs. Simulation results reveal that the exact solution VNE-ILP outperforms the state of art heuristics in terms of VNR acceptance ratio and average virtual link delay.

Most of the existing approaches for extractive single-document summarization of news articles rely on a single method to summarize all input documents. Recent work demonstrated that this is a significant limitation, since no summarization technique can achieve high performance for all input articles. In this context, this paper proposes a new regression-based approach using integer linear programming (ILP) for single-document summarization. The proposed solution relies on a concept-based ILP method to generate multiple candidate summaries for each input article exploring different concept weighting methods and representation forms. Afterward, a regression model enriched with several extracted features at summary, sentence and n-gram level is applied to select among the candidates the most informative summary based on an estimation of the traditional ROUGE-1 score. The investigated features are derived from indicators of content importance such as frequency, position, and coverage. Experiments conducted on the DUC 2001-2002 and CNN corpora show that the proposed method statistically outperforms other state-of-the-art extractive summarization approaches in most scenarios regarding ROUGE-1 and ROUGE-2 recall measures.

An increase in the number of volatile renewables in the electricity grid enhances the imbalance of supply and demand. One promising candidate to solve this problem is to improve the energy storage. The Ecovat system is a new seasonal thermal energy storage system currently under development. In this paper, an integer linear programming model is developed to describe the behaviour and potential of this system. Furthermore, it is compared with a previously developed model, which is simplifying the behaviour of the Ecovat system much more, but is much less computationally expensive. It is shown that the new approach performs significantly better for several cases. For controlling a real Ecovat system in the future we may incorporate a number of improvements identified by our comparison analysis into the previously developed approach, which may help increase the quality of the obtained results without increasing the computational effort too much.
