Open publisher page 20 citations

Abstract

A solution method for solving optimization problems with a max-separable objective function and min-separable inequality constraints is suggested. The method is based on the results of 5 Zimmermann, K. 2003. Disjunctive optimization, max-separable problems and extremal algebras. Theor. Comput. Sci, 293: 45–54. [Crossref], [Web of Science ®] , [Google Scholar], 6 Zimmermann, K. 2004. One class of optimization problems with alternative constraints and its application. Proceedings Symposium on Operations Research, September: 3–9. Split [Google Scholar]. Application in some location problems and small illustrative numerical examples are presented.
