This paper deals with pipelined queries over services. The execution plan of such queries defines an order in which the services are called. We present the theoretical underpinni...
Ordering a set of items so as to minimize the sum of distances between consecutive elements is a fundamental optimization problem occurring in many settings. While it is NP-hard i...
The joint replenishment of inventory problem (JRP) requires independence of minor ordering costs. In this paper we propose an evolutionary algorithm (EA) for a modification of the...
The rapid advances of genome-scale sequencing have brought out the necessity of developing new data processing techniques for enormous genomic data. Microarrays, for example, can g...
The optimal sizing of a small autonomous hybrid power system can be a very challenging task, due to the large number of design settings and the uncertainty in key parameters. This ...
