In this paper we present GRASPER, a graph constraint solver, based on set constraints. We specify GRASPER’s constraints and we make use of our framework to model a problem in the...
A large class of stochastic optimization problems can be modeled as minimizing an objective function f that depends on a choice of a vector x ∈ X, as well as on a random external...
This paper considers how to optimally set the basestock level for a single buffer when demand is uncertain, in a robust framework. We present a family of algorithms based on decom...
In PODC 2003, Park, Chong, Siegel and Ray [22] proposed an optimistic protocol for fair exchange, based on RSA signatures. We show that their protocol is totally breakable already...
