Abstract: This is Part II of a two-part series. Part I showed how pine and generalized network models, and advances in methods of solving them have resulted in dramatic cost savings for OR/MS practitioners. This paper focuses on network related formulation (NETFORM) models, which encompass an even wider variety of applications. We show how NETFORM has enabled the efficient solution of problems in scheduling, production, distribution, and other areas that were too large or difficult lo be handled by previously applied techniques, including mixed integer programming.
