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...
This paper shows how the steady-state availability and failure frequency can be calculated in a single pass for very large systems, when the availability is expressed as a product...
We present a new algorithm for computing the solution of large Markov chain models whose generators can be represented in the form of a generalized tensor algebra, such as network...
The free-rider phenomenon which impedes the marketing of information goods is conventionally countered by copyright protection regulations and technology. Alternative ways to mark...
A new problem encoding is devised for the minimum span frequency assignment problem in wireless communications networks which is compact and general. Using the new encoding, which...
