The problem addressed in this work is to develop a comprehensive mathematical programming model for the efficient scheduling of oil-refinery operations. Our approach is first to d...
Abstract— In this paper we consider several problems involving control with limited actuation and sampling rates. Event-based control has emerged as an attractive approach for ad...
Abstract— Many problems associated with networked systems can be formulated as network utility maximization (NUM) problems. NUM problems maximize a global separable measure of ne...
Abstract— Markets and auctions have been proposed as mechanisms for efficiently and fairly allocating resources in a number of different computational settings. Economic approac...
The strategic safety stock placement problem is a constrained separable concave minimization problem and so is solvable, in principle, as a sequence of mixed-integer programming p...
