Disregarding combinatorial optimization as an attractive platform for
academic careers , the three main justifications for the current and steadily increasing
interest in the field are:
- the variety of realistic decision problems amenable for modeling and analysis
via combinatorial optimization
- the lack of 8 universal, operational algorithm
- other theoretical challenges
First. the nature of a combinatorial optimization problem is accounted for. To
substantiate the significance of such problems to decision-makers in practice, an
overview of the most profitable application areas as well as the most applicable
problem types is then provided. Past history is briefly reviewed within the framework
of an annotated bibliography. We close with subjective views as to today's challenges
and to what is believed to be tomorrow's main issues of concern.
Keywords:
Combinatorial optimization, enumeration, heuristics, theoretical challenges
