Network Interdiction And Stochastic Integer Programming

Papers from a March 2002 workshop held at the University of California-Davis address problems associated with protecting and attacking computer, transportation, and social networks. Optimization models that deal with the stochastic nature of these problems are an important part of the book. Some specific topics include interdicting smuggled nuclear material, a decomposition-based approximation for network inhibition, interdicting stochastic networks, stochastic batch sizing, and disjunctive decomposition with set convexification.
