We discuss how constraint programming can improve the performance of a column generation solution process for the NP-hard Tail Assignment problem in aircraft scheduling. Combining...
In this paper, we deal with the large-scale divisible load problem studied in [12]. We show how to reduce this problem to a classical preemptive scheduling problem on a single mac...

This paper addresses a novel linear programming based approach to optimize the choice of the encoding parameters for the MPEG-4 AAC audio codec. Current techniques solve the encod...
— This paper addresses the problem of simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM) by a mobile robot. The SLAM problem is defined as a global optimization problem in which the o...
We define the concept of crossing numbers for simultaneous graphs by extending the crossing number problem of traditional graphs. We discuss differences to the traditional crossin...
