Abstract

In this paper, we present an algorithm to solve a particular convex model explicitly. The model may massively arise when, for example, Benders decomposition or Lagrangean relaxation-decomposition is applied to solve large design problems in facility location and capacity expansion. To attain the optimal solution of the model, we analyze its Karush–Kuhn–Tucker optimality conditions and develop a constructive algorithm that provides the optimal primal and dual solutions. This approach yields better performance than other convex optimization techniques.
