This paper considers a two-stage development problem for information goods with costless quality degradation. In our model, a seller of information goods faces customers that are ...
When the processing times of jobs are controllable, selected processing times affect both the manufacturing cost and the scheduling performance.A well-known example for such a cas...
We consider a stochastic model for distributed average consensus, which arises in applications such as load balancing for parallel processors, distributed coordination of mobile a...
