Millions of containers are stowed every week with goods worth billions of dollars, but container vessel stowage is an all but neglected combinatorial optimization problem. In this ...
In utilizing the technique of stratification, the user needs to first partition/stratify the sample space; the next task is to determine how to allocate samples to strata. How to ...
As human-computer interaction becomes more closely modeled on human-human interaction, new techniques and strategies for human-computer interaction are required. In response to th...
