Optimization problems involving collections of dependent objects
Published in Annals of Operations Research
We describe a class of problems motivated by numerous real-world applications where there is a collection of objects that have both a cost and a value, but where some of those objects depend upon other objects to obtain their full value. Applications include finding an optimal order for transferring files under threat of system failure, ordering se...
