— Designing optimal measurement infrastructure is a key step for network management. In this work we address the problem of optimizing a scalable distributed polling system. The ...
Tool count optimization is mandatory for an efficiently organized semiconductor factory. This paper describes an efficient heuristic to determine the tool count using the compact ...
We propose a new approach for scheduling with strict deadlines and apply this approach to the TimeConstrained Project Scheduling Problem (TCPSP). To be able to meet these deadlines...

We introduce a new combinatorial optimization problem, which is a generalization of the Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) and which we call Traveling Salesman Problem of Second Orde...
Abstract-- Security issues and attack management in transparent WDM (Wavelength Division Multiplexing) optical networks has become of prime importance to network operators due to t...
