We study a wide range of online covering and packing optimization problems. In an online covering problem a linear cost function is known in advance, but the linear constraints th...
An important issue in embedded systems design is the size of programs. As computing devices decrease in size, yet with more and more functions, better code size optimizations are i...
Abstract— An important issue for supporting multimedia applications in multiple heterogeneous networks, a typical pervasive computing environment, is how to optimize the rate all...

Several real world applications involve solving combinatorial optimization problems. Commonly, existing heuristic approaches are designed to address specific difficulties of the u...
We present the systematic design and development of a distributed query scheduling service DQS in the context of DIOM, a distributed and interoperable query mediation system 26 ...
