Solving Real-Life Problems with Whole
Number Decisions
Presented by: Abdullah
What is Integer
Programming?
• • Helps find best solutions with whole
number decisions.
• • A part of Linear Programming but only
allows integers.
• • Example: Can’t hire 2.5 workers – only
whole people.
• • Used in scheduling, production, and
budgeting.
Types of Integer
Programming
• 1. Pure Integer Programming – All
variables are integers.
• 2. Mixed Integer Programming – Mix of
integers and decimals.
• 3. Binary Integer Programming –
Variables are 0 or 1 (Yes/No).
Example 1 – Product Mix
Problem
• • A factory makes chairs ($30) and
tables ($50).
• • Max: 6 items/day. Maximize profit.
• • Model: Max 30x + 50y, where x+y ≤
6.
• • Try values like (3,3), (2,4), and pick
best profit.
Example 2 – Worker
Scheduling
• • Need 3 workers per day for 5 days.
• • Workers work full week if hired.
• • Use binary values: 1 = hired, 0 = not.
• • Goal: Minimize total workers while
covering all days.
Example 3 –
Transportation Problem
• • Send goods from 2 warehouses to 3
stores.
• • Constraints: supply, demand, cost.
• • Model uses integer units (no fractional
trucks).
• • Goal: Minimize shipping cost.
Example 4 – Knapsack
Problem
• • Bag limit: 15kg, items with weight and
value.
• • Use 0/1 for each item (take or leave).
• • Maximize value without passing
weight limit.
• • Classic example in optimization.
Example 5 – Facility
Location
• • Decide where to build warehouses.
• • Binary: 1 = build, 0 = don’t.
• • Each city must be served from a built
warehouse.
• • Minimize build + delivery cost.
Why Integer
Programming is Powerful
• • Real-world needs whole numbers.
• • Practical solutions for cost-saving,
planning.
• • Used in logistics, airlines,
manufacturing, marketing.
