A novel combination of emergent algorithmic methods, powerful computational platforms and supporting infrastructure is described. These complementary tools and technologies are us...

We investigate the problem of matching buyers and sellers in a multi-item multi-unit combinatorial exchange so as to maximize either the surplus (revenue minus cost) or the tradin...
Karp and Zhang developed a general randomized parallel algorithm for solving branch and bound problems. They showed that with high probability their algorithm attained optimal spe...
IP problems characterise combinatorial optimisation problems where conventional numerical methods based on the hill-climbing technique can not be directly applied. Conventional me...
We study the problem of projecting a distribution onto (or finding a maximum likelihood distribution among) Markov networks of bounded tree-width. By casting it as the combinatori...
