Aplysia feeding behavior is highly variable from cycle to cycle. In some cycles, when the variability causes a mismatch between the animal's movements and the requirements of...
In this paper we present a novel formulation for the optimal control of discrete event dynamic processes which represent production systems with unreliable machines and buffers of...
— Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a stochastic global optimization algorithm inspired by social behavior of bird flocking in search for food, which is a simple but powerful...
— Multiuser diversity is a phenomenon caused by channel variations among different users in a wireless network. Cooperative relaying provides another form of diversity due to the...
Abstract. This paper reconsiders the deployment of synchronous optical networks (SONET), an optimization problem naturally expressed in terms of set variables. Earlier approaches, ...
