1. Integer Quadratic Programming for Control and Communication
Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is integer quadratic programming with applications to problems arising in the areas of automatic control and communication. One of the most widespread modern control methods is Model Predictive Control (MPC). In each sampling time, MPC requires the solution of a Quadratic Programming (QP) problem. READ MORE

2. Applications of Integer Quadratic Programming in Control and Communication
Abstract : The main topic of this thesis is integer quadratic programming with applications to problems arising in the areas of automatic control and communication. One of the most widespread modern control principles is the discrete-time method Model Predictive Control (MPC). READ MORE

3. Efficient reduction techniques for a large-scale Transmission Expansion Planning problem
Abstract : The aim of Transmission Expansion Planning (TEP) studies is to decide which, where, and when new grid elements should be built in order to minimize the total system cost. The lumpiness of the investment decisions, together with the large size of the problem, make the problem very hard to solve. READ MORE

4. Polyhedral and complexity studies in integer optimization, with applications to maintenance planning and location–routing problems
Abstract : This thesis develops integer linear programming models for and studies the complexity of problems in the areas of maintenance optimization and location–routing. We study how well the polyhedra defined by the linear programming relaxation of themodels approximate the convex hull of the integer feasible solutions. READ MORE

5. On the optimization of opportunistic maintenance activities
Abstract : Maintenance is a source of large costs; in the EU the maintenance costs amountto between 4% and 8% of the total sales turnover. Opportunistic maintenance is anattempt to lower the maintenance cost by considering the failure of onecomponent as an opportunity to replace yet non-failed components in order toprevent future failures.
