Multi-parametric programming theory forms an active field of research and has proven to provide invaluable tools for decision making under uncertainty. While uncertainty in the right-hand side (RHS) and in the objective function's coefficients (OFC) have been thoroughly studied in the literature, the case of left-hand side (LHS) uncertainty has attracted significantly less attention mainly because of the computational implications that arise in such a problem. In the present work, we propose a novel algorithm for the analytical solution of multi-parametric MILP (mp-MILP) problems under global uncertainty, i.e. RHS, OFC and LHS. The exact explicit solutions and the corresponding regions of the parametric space are computed while a number of case studies illustrates the merits of the proposed algorithm. date: 2018-08-04 date_type: published official_url: http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.compchemeng.2018.04.015 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1558216 doi: 10.1016/j.compchemeng.2018.04.015 lyricists_name: Charitopoulos, Vasileios lyricists_name: Dua, Vivek lyricists_name: Papageorgiou, Lazaros lyricists_id: VCHAR89 lyricists_id: VDUAX49 lyricists_id: LPAPA33 actors_name: Laslett, David actors_id: DLASL34 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Computers and Chemical Engineering volume: 116 pagerange: 279-295 issn: 0098-1354 citation: Charitopoulos, VM; Papageorgiou, LG; Dua, V; (2018) Multi-parametric mixed integer linear programming under global uncertainty.
