In this paper we address a general Goal Programming problem with linear objectives, convex constraints, and an arbitrary componentwise nondecreasing norm to aggregate deviations w...
This paper considers the design of two-layered fully interconnected networks.A two-layered network consists of clusters of nodes, each defining an access network and a backbone n...
Today's data centers offer IT services mostly hosted on dedicated physical servers. Server virtualization provides a technical means for server consolidation. Thus, multiple v...
In this paper we introduce an evolutionary algorithm for solving a copper mine planning problem. In the last 10 years this realworld problem has been tackled using linear integer p...
