This paper studies the input design problem for system identification where time domain constraints have to be considered. A finite Markov chain is used to model the input of the s...
Operation management of underground passenger transport systems is associated with combinatorial optimization problems (known as crew and train scheduling and rostering) which bel...
An efficient “Simulation Optimization” technique is developed to solve system design problems which can not be expressed in explicit analytical or mathematical models. In part...
Current conversational recommender systems are unable to offer guarantees on the quality of their recommendations due to a lack of principled user utility models. We develop an ap...
Conventional performance evaluation mechanisms focus on dedicated distributed systems. Grid computing infrastructure, on another hand, is a shared collaborative environment constr...
