This paper re-examines the classical problem of minimizing maximum lateness which is defined as follows: given a collection of n jobs with processing times and due dates, in what o...
Background: Current approaches to parameter estimation are often inappropriate or inconvenient for the modelling of complex biological systems. For systems described by nonlinear ...
We take a new look at the convex path recoloring (CPR), convex tree recoloring (CTR), and convex leaf recoloring (CLR) problems through the eyes of the independent set problem. Th...
This paper is devoted to basic scheduling problems in which the scheduling cost of a job is not a function of its completion time. Instead, the cost is derived from the integratio...
In this work we are interested in the problem of scheduling and redistributing data on master-slave platforms. We consider the case were the workers possess initial loads, some of...
