We present a new technique (RIIPS) for solving rostering problems in the presence of service uncertainty. RIIPS stands for "Rostering by Iterating Integer Programming and Sim...
We describe a Markov state model for a cloned potassium channel of the human heart ( 1KvLQTI ). The parameters of the model are determined by a least-squares fit of predicted vs. ...
