We present smooth interpretation, a method to systematically approximate numerical imperative programs by smooth mathematical functions. This approximation facilitates the use of ...
We combine mixed integer linear programming (MILP) and constraint programming (CP) to minimize tardiness in planning and scheduling. Tasks are allocated to facilities using MILP an...
The standard dynamic programming solution to finding k-medians on a line with n nodes requires O(kn2 ) time. Dynamic programming speedup techniques, e.g., use of the quadrangle i...
A modification of the standard Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithm is presented for finding the global minimum of a continuous multidimensional, multimodal function. We report resu...
This paperdescribes the use of a powerful graph query language for querying programs, and a novel combination of transformations for generating efficient implementations of the q...
