We've collated many interesting optimization models in our GitHub repository. The focus is on Excel and Python models.
We compare a linear programming model written using Julia/JuMP with the same model written using Python/Pyomo.
We minimize the number of racks required to accommodate all pallets in a warehouse, freeing space for other activities and allowing company growth.
This article series implements a staff scheduling model in Excel using OpenSolver, then in Python using Pyomo.
Given available stock of wire and a list of pieces required, what is the best way to cut the stock to fulfil demand while minimizing waste?
Optimal facility location is a common & difficult decision that organizations need to make. We build a location optimization model in Excel.
We minimize trim waste in a paper manufacturing process. A theoretically perfect solution is impractical, so what can we do?
We present an example of project crashing using an optimization model to help the project manager decide what to do.
