The criterion of total weighted completion time occurs as a sub-problem of combinatorial optimization problems in such diverse areas as scheduling, container loading and storage a...
This paper describes a set of methods for randomly drawing traces in large models either uniformly among all traces, or with a coverage criterion as target. Classical random walk ...
While risk-sensitive (RS) approaches for designing plans of total productive maintenance are critical in manufacturing systems, there is little in the literature by way of theoret...
In this note we consider the following problem. Suppose a set of sensors is jointly trying to estimate a process. One sensor takes a measurement at every time step and the measure...
