Unified Computer Programs for Nonlinear Integer/Continuous/Discrete Programming Problems Including One Here with Four Thousand Binary 0-1 Integer Variables

Jsun Yui Wong

Case One: Four Thousand Binary 0-1 Integer Variables

Similar to the computer programs of the preceding papers, the computer program below seeks to solve Schittkowski's Test Problem 305 [14, p. 129] but with 4000 unknowns instead of 100 unknowns and with the modification that the 4000 unknowns are 0-1 variables.  Thus, the problem is to minimize the following:

4000                           4000                                                  4000    
SIGMA  X(i)^2  +   [  SIGMA  (1/2) * i *X(i)^2  ] ^2  +   [  SIGMA  (1/2) *  i *X(i)^2  ] ^4
i=1                               i=1                                                     i=1

subject to 0<= X(j) <=1, X(j) integer, j=1, 2, 3,..., 4000.  See Schittkowski [14, p. 129].

One notes line 144, which is 144 GOTO 168.

This BASIC computer program was run via basica/D of Microsoft's GW-BASIC 3.11 interpreter for DOS.  See the BASIC manual [11].  Copied by hand from the screen, the output through
JJJJ=-31999 is as follows:

0   0   0   0   0
0   0   0   0   0
0   0   0   0   0
0   0   0   0   0

0   0   0   0   0
0   -32000

0   0   0   0   0
0   0   0   0   0
0   0   0   0   0
0   -31999

Immediately above there is no rounding by hand.  One notes that M=0 and that only 30 A's of 4000 A's are shown above.

On a personal computer with a Pentium Dual-Core CPU E5200 @2.50GHz, 2.50 GHz, 960 MB of RAM, and the IBM basica/D interpreter, version GW BASIC 3.11,  the wall-clock time for obtaining the output through JJJJ=-31999 was 70 minutes.

Case Two: Two General Integer Variables and One Continuous Variable

Similar to the computer program above, the following computer program seeks to solve Hock and Schittkowski's Problem 25 [6, p. 48] with the modification that the first two variables are general integer variables.  Thus, the problem here is to minimize the following:

99
SIGMA   (-.01*i+    EXP(  -(1/X(1))*( U(i)    -X(2))^X(3) ) )^2
i=1

where   U(i)=25+(    -50*LOG(.01*i )   )^(1/1.5), i=1, 2, 3,..., 99

subject to

.1<=X(1)<=100, X(1) integer

0<=X(2)<=25.6, X(2) integer

0<=X(3)<=5.
