— Most large-scale communication networks, such as the Internet, consist of interconnected administrative domains. While source (or selfish) routing, where transmission follows ...
We examine linear program (LP) approaches to boosting and demonstrate their efficient solution using LPBoost, a column generation based simplex method. We formulate the problem as...

The new economic geography literature provides a general equilibrium framework that explains the emergence of economic agglomerations as a trade-off between increasing returns at...
Existing solutions to carrier-based sensor placement by a single robot, in a bounded unknown region of interest (ROI), do not guarantee full area coverage and/or do not terminate. ...
