Modeling with Soft Constraints

Chris Harris

Chapter Chapter 4 in Fixed and Variable Costs, 2014, pp 151-177 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract With hard constraints we deal with straight lines, discontinuities, and discrete probability states. This makes the modeling much easier but can hide some very important aspects of optimization of physical assets. Here we explore the softening of hard limits and discrete states.
