Operational Planning Using Mixed Integer Programming
Keyword(s):
A mathematical model was constructed and used to help plan five-year timber harvesting and delivery activities from an industrially managed public forest in Ontario. Harvest systems, harvest levels, and wood flows from compartments within the forest to various mills and delivery points were scheduled to minimize costs. The mathematical structure of the model may suggest applications to related forest planning problems. The model was useful in addressing the planning problem, and model results were used within the company's planning process. Data accuracy problems precluded assessing definitively the expected cost savings resulting from model use.
