This AIMMS project illustrates how to formulate and solve a telecommunication utilization problem of calls that are to be routed through a network of cables and switch-stations.

The objective of the model is to check the utilization of telecommunication network capacity, such that

  • All calls are routed from origin to destination

  • The routing upholds the capacity restriction of a cable

  • The routing upholds the capacity restriction of a switch-station

For illustration this demo uses a dataset containing Dutch cities.

More information on this problem can be found in Chapter 21 of the AIMMS Optimization Modeling book.
