Formulate an IP to minimize the total annual production cost satisfying the following constraints: Each facility can produce only one type of product. The total production of each type of product must be at a single facility. For instance, if any Products A are produced at facility 1, then all Products A must be produced there. If facilities 3 and 4 are used, then facility 1 must also be used.arrow_forward

Each fabric can be woven on one or more of the mill’s 36 looms.

The mill operates 24 hours a day and is scheduled for 30 days during the coming month. The mill has two types of looms: draw and regular. The draw looms are more versatile and can be used for all five fabrics. The regular looms can produce only three of the fabrics. The mill has a total of 36 looms: 8 are draw and 28 are regular. The rate of production for each fabric on each type of loom is given in below Table 2. The time required to change over from producing one fabric to another is negligible and does not have to be considered.
