## Detailed Description

A node of the PIP solution tree.

This is the base class for the nodes of the binary trees representing the solutions of PIP problems. From this one, two classes are derived:

- PIP_Decision_Node, for the internal nodes of the tree;
- PIP_Solution_Node, for the leaves of the tree.

## Member Function Documentation

const Constraint_System & Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Tree_Node::constraints | ( |  | ) | const

inline

Returns the system of parameter constraints controlling `*this`.

The indices in the constraints are the same as the original variables and parameters. Coefficients in indices corresponding to variables always are zero.

void Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Tree_Node::print | ( | std::ostream & | s,
|  | int | indent = `0`
| ) |  | const

Prints on `s` the tree rooted in `*this`.

Parameters

  s | The output stream.
  indent | The amount of indentation.

virtual void Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Tree_Node::update_tableau | ( | const PIP_Problem & | pip,
|  | dimension_type | external_space_dim,
|  | dimension_type | first_pending_constraint,
|  | const Constraint_Sequence & | input_cs,
|  | const Variables_Set & | parameters
| ) |  |

protected pure virtual

Populates the parametric simplex tableau using external data.

Parameters

  pip | The PIP_Problem object containing this node.
  external_space_dim | The number of all problem variables and problem parameters (excluding artificial parameters).
  first_pending_constraint | The first element in `input_cs` to be added to the tableau, which already contains the previous elements.
  input_cs | All the constraints of the PIP problem.
  parameters | The set of indices of the problem parameters.

Implemented in Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Decision_Node, and Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Solution_Node.

virtual PIP_Tree_Node* Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Tree_Node::solve | ( | const PIP_Problem & | pip,
|  | bool | check_feasible_context,
|  | const Matrix< Row > & | context,
|  | const Variables_Set & | params,
|  | dimension_type | space_dim,
|  | int | indent_level
| ) |  |

protected pure virtual

Executes a parametric simplex on the tableau, under specified context.

Returns
  The root of the PIP tree solution, or 0 if unfeasible.

Parameters

  pip | The PIP_Problem object containing this node.
  check_feasible_context | Whether the resolution process should (re-)check feasibility of context (since the initial context may have been modified).
  context | The context, being a set of constraints on the parameters.
  params | The local parameter set, including parent's artificial parameters.
  space_dim | The space dimension of parent, including artificial parameters.
  indent_level | The indentation level (for debugging output only).

Implemented in Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Decision_Node, and Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Solution_Node.

virtual void Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Tree_Node::print_tree | ( | std::ostream & | s,
|  | int | indent,
|  | const std::vector< bool > & | pip_dim_is_param,
|  | dimension_type | first_art_dim
| ) |  | const

protected pure virtual

Prints on `s` the tree rooted in `*this`.

Parameters

  s | The output stream.
  indent | The amount of indentation.
  pip_dim_is_param | A vector of Boolean flags telling which PIP problem dimensions are problem parameters. The size of the vector is equal to the PIP problem internal space dimension (i.e., no artificial parameters).
  first_art_dim | The first space dimension corresponding to an artificial parameter that was created in this node (if any).

Implemented in Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Decision_Node, and Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Solution_Node.

static bool Parma_Polyhedra_Library::PIP_Tree_Node::compatibility_check | ( | Matrix< Row > & | s | ) |

static protected

Checks whether a context matrix is satisfiable.

The satisfiability check is implemented by the revised dual simplex algorithm on the context matrix. The algorithm ensures the feasible solution is integer by applying a cut generation method when intermediate non-integer solutions are found.
