We present some proposals to approximately solve a period vehicle routing problem used to model the extraction of oil from a set of onshore oil wells in Brazil. This problem diffe...

Abstract— Robustness and reliability are critical issues in network management. To provide resiliency, a popular protection scheme against network failures is the simultaneous ro...
We study simple greedy approximation algorithms for general class of integer packing problems. We provide a novel analysis based on the duality theory of linear programming. This e...
Continuous-variable simulation optimization problems are those optimization problems where the objective function is computed through stochastic simulation and the decision variab...
Abstract. Given a simple n-sided polygon in the plane with a boundary partitioned into subchains some of which are convex and colored, we consider the following problem: Which is t...
