Abstract-- The problem of optimally controlling the processing rate of tasks in Discrete Event Systems (DES) with hard real-time constraints has been solved in [9] under the assump...
We consider combinatorial and computational issues that are related to the problem of moving coins from one configuration to another. Coins are defined as non-overlapping discs, an...

This paper presents an algorithm for generating unconstrained guillotine-cutting patterns for rectangular blanks. A pattern includes at most two sections, each of which consists o...
Motivated by a scheduling problem that arises in the study of optical networks we prove the following result, which is a variation of a conjecture of Haxell, Wilfong and Winkler. ...
Multidimensional scaling (MDS) is a collection of data analytic techniques for constructing configurations of points from dissimilarity information about interpoint distances. Cla...
