Freighter airlines need to recover both aircraft and cargo schedules when disruptions happen. This process is usually divided into three sequential decisions to recovery flights, aircraft, and cargoes. This study focuses on the integrated…

Industrially relevant constrained optimization problems, such as portfolio optimization and portfolio rebalancing, are often intractable or difficult to solve exactly. In this work, we propose and benchmark a decomposition pipeline…

Quantum annealing technologies aim to solve computational optimization and sampling problems. QPU (Quantum Processing Unit) machines such as the D-Wave system use the QUBO (Quadratic Unconstrained Binary Optimization) formula to define…
