Engineering with logic: HOL specification and symbolic-evaluation testing for TCP implementations
The TCP/IP protocols and Sockets API underlie much of modern computation, but their semantics have historically been very complex and ill-defined. The real standard is the de fact...

Convex programming for scheduling unrelated parallel machines
We consider the classical problem of scheduling parallel unrelated machines. Each job is to be processed by exactly one machine. Processing job j on machine i requires time pij . ...

Primal-dual algorithms for deterministic inventory problems
We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multi-stage assembly problem. ...
