Resumo:In this thesis, we address an optimization problem that appears in cutting stock operations research called the minimization of the maximum number of open stacks (MOSP) and we put forward a new integer programming formulation for the MOSP. By associating the duration of each stack with an interval of time, it is possible to use the rich theory that exists in interval graphs in order to create a model based on the completion of a graph with edges. The structure of this type of graphs admits a linear ordering of the vertices that de nes an ordering of the stacks, and consequently decides a sequence for the cutting patterns. The polytope de ned by this formulation is full-dimensional and the main inequalities in the model are proved to be facets. Additional inequalities are derived based on the properties of chordal graphs and comparability graphs. The maximum number of open stacks is related with the chromatic number of the solution graph; thus the formulation is strengthened by adding the representatives formulation for the vertex coloring problem. The model is applied to the minimization of open stacks, and also to the minimum interval graph completion problem and other pattern sequencing problems such as the minimization of the order spread (MORP) and the minimization of the number of tool switches (MTSP). Computational tests of the model are presented.
