A branch and bound method for stochastic integer problems under probabilistic constraints. (English) Zbl 1064.90030

Summary: Stochastic integer programming problems under probabilistic constraints are considered. Deterministic equivalent formulations of the original problem are obtained by using \(p\)-efficient points of the distribution function of the right hand side vector. A branch and bound solution method is proposed based on a partial enumeration of the set of these points. The numerical experience with the probabilistic lot-sizing problem shows the potential of the solution approach and the efficiency of the algorithms implemented.
