We present an iterative cutting plane method for minimizing staffing costs in a service system subject to satisfying acceptable service level requirements over multiple time perio...
Global optimization can be used as the main component for reliable decision support systems. In this contribution, we explore numerical solution techniques for nonconvex and nondi...
This paper addresses the problem of tracking multiple targets using a network of communicating robots and stationary sensors. We introduce a Region-based Approach which controls r...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks represent an effective way to share information, since there are no central points of failure or bottleneck. However, the flip side to the distributive...
The fundamental relations that underlie cognitive comparisons--"same" and "different"--can be demultiple levels of abstraction, which vary in relational comple...
