This paper presents a review of advances in the mathematical programming approach to discrete/continuous optimization problems. We first present a brief review of MILP and MINLP f...
In this paper, we present an algorithm for finding utilitarian optimal solutions to Simple and Disjunctive Temporal Problems with Preferences (STPPs and DTPPs) based on Benders’...

We introduce a new method for optimization of SQL queries with nested subqueries. The method is based on the idea of Boolean aggregates, aggregates that compute the conjunction or ...
Large search engines process thousands of queries per second over billions of documents, making query processing a major performance bottleneck. An important class of optimization...
We address a class of problems where decisions have to be optimized over a time horizon given that the future is uncertain and that the optimization decisions influence the time o...
