Linearizing a discrete NSP

Example model

Description: A cereal formulation model

A discrete mixed integer model that chooses product formulations to minimize total ingredient costs. This could be an NSP but it uses two methods to linearize: 1) Decision variable is constructed as a constrained Boolean array 2) Prices are defined as piecewise linear curves

Keywords: product formulation, cereal formulation
