Let G be a connected graph, and let V and V two n-element subsets of its vertex set V (G). Imagine that we place a chip at each element of V and we want to move them into the posi...
Abstract. We present a new derivative-free algorithm, ORBIT, for unconstrained local optimization of computationally expensive functions. A trust-region framework using interpolati...

We present a new method to simulate optical waves in large geometries. This method is based on newly developed finite elements, so-called Trigonometric Finite Wave Elements (TFWEs)...
We observe that an effect of "disk resource sharing" of multi-copy movie traffic has great impact on the blocking performance of a video-on-demand system. This observatio...

Intensity inhomogeneities often occur in real-world images and may cause considerable difficulties in image segmentation. In order to overcome the difficulties caused by intensity ...
