This paper describes some techniques to improve the speed of the implicit enumeration method for solving zero-one integer programming problems. Among these techniques, the most powerful is the one of using a column vector which works as a tag for each inequality, indicating whether or not the inequality should be checked for the current partial solution. A new condition for underlining a variable and the concept of pseudo-underlining are also proposed. These techniques were implemented in the computer programil lip (ILLinois Integer Programming code). The computational results for different types of problems are discussed.
