A fundamental facility location problem is to choose the location of facilities, such as industrial plants and warehouses, to minimize the cost of satisfying the demand for some c...
A common problem in the operation of mission critical control systems is that of determining the future value of a physical quantity based upon past measurements of it or of relat...
Many works have studied the negative impact of slow start on the performance of short transfers. Some works propose to accelerate the window increase during this phase in order to ...
The primary purpose of parallel computation is the fast execution of computational tasks that are too slow to perform sequentially. However, it was shown recently that a second eq...
Heuristics are an increasingly popular solution method for combinatorial optimization problems. Heuristic use often frees the modeler from some of the restrictions placed on class...
