Abstract-- This work studies a class of hybrid mechanical systems that locomote by switching between constraints defining different dynamic regimes. We develop a geometric framewor...
The demand for data center computing increased significantly in recent years resulting in huge energy consumption. Data centers typically comprise three main subsystems: IT equip...

Abstract. An optimization problem arising in the design of optical fibre networks is discussed. A network contains client nodes, each installed on one or more SONET rings. A const...
Abstract--Manufacturing scheduling is an important but difficult task. In order to effectively solve such combinatorial optimization problems, this paper presents a novel Lagrangia...
In this paper, derivation of the optimal chemotherapy schedule is formulated and solved as a dynamic optimization problem. For this purpose two models representing the tumour grow...
