Abstract. We explore a new general-purpose heuristic for nding highquality solutions to hard optimization problems. The method, called extremal optimization, is inspired by self-or...

Approximations based on dyadic centred intervals are investigated as a means for implementing exact real arithmetic. It is shown that the field operations can be implemented on th...
— The study of skylines and their variants has received considerable attention in recent years. Skylines are essentially sets of most interesting (undominated) tuples in a databa...

The Dirichlet compound multinomial (DCM) distribution, also called the multivariate Polya distribution, is a model for text documents that takes into account burstiness: the fact ...
The paper deals with the numerical treatment of optimal control problems with bounded distributed controls and elliptic state equations by a wider class of barrier-penalty methods...
