/* Power plant LP scheduler */
/* Implemented, inspected, written and converted to GNU MathProg by NASZVADI, Peter, 199x-2017 <vuk@cs.elte.hu> */
/* Fast electric power plant scheduler implementation based on new results in author's Thesis.
The base problem is: * given some power plants * a short time scale partitioned to equidistant intervals * the task is to yielding the cheapest schedule for the plants * the daily demand forecast is usually accurate and part of the input
The power plants has technical limitations: * upper and lower bounds of produced energy * and also a gradient barrier in both directions (can depend on time, but this GMPL implementation is simplified) * Also units with same properties (technical and price) should be scheduled together usually with near same performance values * Assumed a simplified network topology, which is contractive, so keeping Kirchhoff's laws is a necessary constraint too * All solutions must be integer
The LP relaxation is equivalent with the MIP problem due to the model's matrix interesting property: it is Totally Unimodular (proven in 2004 by author) and also a Network Matrix (2006, presented at OTDK 2016, Szeged, Hungary) so: * it is strictly polynomial if it is solved by most simplex algs * all base solutions become integer if the RHS vector is integer (it is in real life, so this is an acceptable assumption) * The transposed matrix is NOT a Network Matrix in most cases!
However, adding several other constraints easily turns the problem to be NP-hard, which is also pinpointed and discussed in the Thesis.
See more about electric power plants' scheduling in the author's Thesis (in Hungarian): http://www.cs.elte.hu/matdiploma/vuk.pdf
It is possible to run with custom parameters, what is needed to define is: * TIME set (daylightsaving cases or other than hour intervals) * PLANTS set (the 'Demand' is mandatory and usually negative) * PRICE parameter (can be negative if energy is sold to a consumer) * BOUND parameter (technical bounds) * MAXGRAD parameter (technical bounds)
Then generate a pretty-printed solution by typing: glpsol --math powplant.mod [--data NEW_DATA.dat]
where "NEW_DATA.dat" should contain the above 5 structures filled with custom data. Square brackets shoudn't be entered, and specifying custom data file is optional.*/
