scp Shunji Umetani This is a random test model generator for SCP using the scheme of the following paper, namely the column cost c[j] are integer randomly generated from [1,100]; every column covers at least one row; and every row is covered by at least two columns. see reference: E. Balas and A. Ho, Set covering algorithms using cutting planes, heuristics, and subgradient optimization: A computational study, Mathematical Programming, 12 (1980), 37-60. We have newly generated Classes I-N with the following parameter values, where each class has five models. We have also generated reduced models by a standard pricing method in the following paper: S. Umetani and M. Yagiura, Relaxation heuristics for the set covering problem, Journal of the Operations Research Society of Japan, 50 (2007), 350-375.
