OBJECTIVE: Obtain the optimal solution to a problem of binary integer programming using the
implicit enumerative method.
KEY CONCEPTS:
Implicit enumerative Method: A method of solving integer programming problems, in which tests

that follow conceptually from using implied upper and lower bounds on variables are used to
eliminate all but a tiny fraction of the possible values, with implicit treatment of all other
possibilities.

Type of Problem: Problem Backpack

A hiker has to determine which objects should carry in your backpack, to develop a day trip. Each
object must have an associated weight and personal utility for the hiker.
Objects that can be carried in, as well as their weight and utility are those who have pointed out in
the following table:

Object
flashlight
Sleeping Sack
Kitchen Equipment
Cobija
food
Clothing
other

weight
40
50
30
10
10
40
30

utility
40
80
10
10
4
20
60

Maximum weight = 100.

Determining objects Walker should carry in your bag in order to have the maximum utility of
objects.

Procedure
1. Define the Variables

Procedure
L: Headlight
S: Sleeping Bag
E: Cooking Equipment
C: Cobija
Cm: Food
A: Clothing
T: Other

2. Build the Model

3. Defining the Problem

Maximize Utility:
Z = 40L + 80S +10E + 10C + 4Cm + 20R + 60T
subject to:
40L + 50S + 30E + 10C + 10Cm + 40R + 30T <= 100
L, S, E, C, Cm, R y T = 0 1

enumeration.
The tables can be made complete and find the best
solution computationally.
The tables are started as follows.

5. Replace the values in the From table generated values are replaced in the function

table in the constraint describing the restriction follows:

40(0) + 50(0) +30(0) + 10(0) + 10(0) + 40(0) + 30(0) = 0
40(0) + 50(0) +30(0) + 10(0) + 10(0) + 40(0) + 30(1) = 30

40(1) + 50(1) +30(1) + 10(1) + 10(1) + 40(0) + 30(1) = 170
40(1) + 50(1) +30(1) + 10(1) + 10(1) + 40(1) + 30(0) = 180
40(1) + 50(1) +30(1) + 10(1) + 10(1) + 40(1) + 30(1) = 210
6. Select the results from step 40(0) + 50(0) +30(0) + 10(0) + 10(0) + 40(0) + 30(0) = 0

constraint.

combinations that meet 40(0) + 80(0) +10(0) + 10(0) + 4(0) + 20(0) + 60(1) = 60
the constraint is necessary 40(0) + 80(0) +10(0) + 10(0) + 4(0) + 20(1) + 60(0) = 20
to replace the values of the 40(0) + 80(0) +10(0) + 10(0) + 4(0) + 20(1) + 60(1) = 80
selected table in the .
objective function.

- Cobija
in point 6 is selected.
- others
Conclusion: This example can be seen in a simple basis for the development of the binary integer
programming manner, as it includes each necessary for the management of each problem PEB
step.
