The open pit mine production scheduling (OPMPS) problem seeks to determine when, if
ever, to extract each notional, three-dimensional block of ore and/or waste in a deposit and …

Underground mine schedules seek to determine start dates for activities related to the
extraction of ore, often with an objective of maximizing net present value; constraints enforce …

Open pit mine production scheduling (OPMPS) is a decision problem which seeks to
maximize net present value (NPV) by determining the extraction time of each block of ore …

Underground mine production scheduling determines when, if ever, activities associated
with the extraction of ore should be executed. The accumulation of heat in the mine where …

The open pit mine production scheduling with stockpiling (OPMPS+ S) problem decides
when to extract each notional, three-dimensional block of ore and/or waste in a deposit. In …

Mining operations determine a long-term production schedule, often to maximize net present
value. For a time horizon of between years and decades, optimization models seek the …

En esta tesis, estudiamos la programación de proyectos con un foco en proyectos de
minería. Primero, consideramos un problema determinístico simplificado y su …

We introduce a new integer programming formulation to solve the underground project
scheduling problem, which we define as determining the time period in which to complete …

Large-scale optimization modeling is becoming more prevalent in industry practices. As
