The problem of opportunistic access of parallel channels occupied by primary users is considered. Under a continuous-time Markov chain modeling of the channel occupancy by the prim...

In this paper we provide a general classification of mathematical optimization problems, followed by a matrix of applications that shows the areas in which these problems have bee...
The vehicle routing problem (VRP) is a variant of the familiar travelling salesperson problem (TSP). In the VRP we are to perform a number of visits, using a number of vehicles of ...
Graph layout algorithms typically conform to one or more aesthetic criteria (e.g. minimising the number of bends, maximising orthogonality). Determining the extent to which a grap...
Many practical optimization problems involve nonsmooth (that is, not necessarily differentiable) functions of thousands of variables. In the paper [Haarala, Miettinen, M¨akel¨a,...
