Webinar Summary

In this Tech Talk, key members of the Gurobi team will distinguish weak formulations from strong ones, from the perspective of the models and associated physical systems rather than the underlying theory. After establishing the differences between weak and strong formulations, we will look at some fundamental techniques for strengthening MIP formulations and consider some practical examples.
