We begin by observing that (discrete-time) QuasiBirth-Death Processes (QBDs) are equivalent, in a precise sense, to (discrete-time) probabilistic 1-Counter Automata (p1CAs), and b...
We examine the problem of finding a single meeting location for a group of heterogeneous autonomous mobile robots, such that the total system cost of traveling to the rendezvous i...

This paper discusses the issues that arise in the design and implementation of an industrialstrength evolutionary-based system for the optimization of the monthly work schedules f...
We show that a fast algorithm for the QR factorization of a Toeplitz or Hankel matrix A is weakly stable in the sense that RT R is close to AT A. Thus, when the algorithm is used ...

We present an iterative cutting plane method for minimizing staffing costs in a service system subject to satisfying acceptable service level requirements over multiple time perio...
