In many practical applications of simulation it is desirable to optimize the levels of integer or binary variables that are inputs for the simulation model. In these cases, the ob...

In this paper we examine the simultaneous solution of a set of image transformations with the goal of creating a globally optimal image mosaic. We examine an alternative parameter...
We consider the problem of query plan optimization in information brokers. Information brokers are programs that facilitate access to collections of information sources by hiding ...
In this paper we compare the average performance of one class of low-discrepancy quasi-Monte Carlo sequences for global optimization. Weiner measure is assumed as the probability ...
We discuss the problem of optimally "finishing" a partially sequenced, reconstructed DNA segment. At first sight, this appears to be computationally hard. We construct a...
