AbstractIt is a well known tact that integer programming problems, especially 'all integer programmimg problems. are difficult to solve. In the last few years many commercial packages have been developed for solving integer programming problems. Empirical research concerning methods to improve solution efficiency of these commercial packages when applied to ILP problems, had been conducted. This study is such a research. The study considers an all integer linear programming problem named the '1-th bottle neck problem and applies IBM HPSX-MIP/370 package for solution . From a knowledge of the structure of the problem and program procedures, improvements were suggested and tested for their effect on solution efficiency. Some factors mentioned to be connected with difficulty of ILP problems were reidentified.
