constraint abstractions into integer programming, and to discuss possible combinations of the two approaches. Combinatorial problems are ubiquitous in many real world applications ...
Abstract. This paper illustrates how the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is used as a mathematical model that helps to produce a visualization of microarray data, based on the r...

In distributed real-time systems, an application is often modeled as a set of real-time transactions, where each transaction is a chain of precedence-constrained tasks. Each task ...
