  • 1.  Constraint not working

    Posted Tue December 05, 2023 02:57 AM

    Hi I have a constraint that is not working as per the expectation. what could be the ideal way to code the following constraint. TIA

    for bin in range(max_nb_bins):
    for task in range(nb_tasks):
    mdl.add(mdl.if_then(mdl.presence_of(bin_task_var[bin][task]) != 0,
    mdl.in_range(bin_ex_intvl_var[bin], all_task_interval_lb[task],
    all_task_interval_ub[task])))

    Hi Sandeep, it would be useful if you posted the whole code, or at least the code related to the variables/dictionaries

    • bin_task_var
    • bin_ex_intvl_var
    • all_task_interval_var

    However, it looks like you want to restrict an interval variable to lie between a task-dependent start and end, only when the variable is present of course. If this is the case, I suggest you use the span constraint (span_constraint) in the following way:

    for bin in range(max_nb_bins):
    mdl.add(
    mdl.span(bin_ex_intvl_var[bin], [bin_task_var[bin][task] for task in range(nb_tasks)])
    )

    where the interval variables 

    bin_task_var[bin][task]

    when defined, will have start and end limited by all_task_interval_lb and all_task_interval_ub, for example:

    bin_task_var[bin][task] = mdl.interval_var(
    start=[all_task_interval_lb[task], INTERVAL_MAX],
    end=[all_task_interval_lb[task], all_task_interval_ub[task]])

    Hi 

    Thanks for your response. I have to use interval variables as I have some constraints that need intervals. I am attaching the model. It is not giving optimal. Could you support on same. 

    '''
    Toys Selling Problem:
    Toys are to be placed in bins. These bins are to be sold.
    Each toy has a weight, and max life.
    Each bin has a capacity.
    Each toy should be in one bin only.
    The weights of the toys in the bin should not exceed the capacity of the bin.
    The time the bin can be sold at max is the minimum of the max life of the toys in the bin. We need to maximize life utilization.

    Check typo , compare spelling to the original word... line by line. You should be fine.

    If you set each_capacity=90, you get a feasible result
