This paper develops simple approximate methods to analyze a two-stage stochastic distribution system consisting of one warehouse and multiple retailers. We consider local and cent...
Two-dimensional cellular automata (CA) systems are widely used for modeling spatio-temporal dynamics of evolving populations. Conversely, the logistic equation is a 1-D model descr...
This paper presents a novel stochastic optimization approach to solve constrained economic load dispatch (ELD) problem using Hybrid Bacterial Foraging-Differential Evolution optimi...

Global optimization can be used as the main component for reliable decision support systems. In this contribution, we explore numerical solution techniques for nonconvex and nondi...
The commonly used flaw hypothesis model (FHM) for performing penetration tests provides only limited, highlevel guidance for the derivation of actual penetration attempts. In thi...
