ILOG CPLEX 11.0 User's Manual > Discrete Optimization > Using Piecewise Linear Functions in Optimization: a Transport Example > Describing the Problem > Model with Varying Costs

With this additional consideration about costs varying according to quantity, our model now looks like this:

subject to

yij = (xij) for i = 0, ..., nbDemand-1 and j = 0, ..., nbSupply-1
