The 0-1 Multidimensional Knapsack Problem (0-1 MKP) is a wellknown (and strongly NP-hard) combinatorial optimization problem with many applications. Up to now, the majority of upp...
Stochastic programming is the subfield of mathematical programming that considers optimization in the presence of uncertainty. During the last four decades a vast amount of litera...
We consider the dynamic optimization of chemical processes with changes in the number of equilibrium phases. Recent work has shown that transitions in the number of phases can be ...

The choice of a good annealing schedule is necessary for good performance of simulated annealing for combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we pose the simulated anne...
RANK AGGREGATION is important in many areas ranging from web search over databases to bioinformatics. The underlying decision problem KEMENY SCORE is NP-complete even in case of fo...
