摘要：
This paper presents an optimization model for batch plan-ning U.S. Air Force aerial refueling operations-assigningin-air refueling requests to tankerflights. Our model con-tains many constraints and considerations not included inprior publications on this topic, and our approach com-bines graph construction heuristics with integer program-ming. We also present computational results showinghow our model automatically generates plans that are bet-ter than human-created plans in terms fuel efficiency andcomparable in terms of number offlights planned.
