Abstract— The role of gradient estimation in global optimization is investigated. The concept of a regional gradient is introduced as a tool for analyzing and comparing different...
High-quality meshes are essential in the solution of partial differential equations (PDEs), which arise in numerous science and engineering applications, as the mesh quality aff...
We produce an algorithm that is optimal with respect to both space and execution time to generate all the lozenge (or domino) tilings of a hole-free, general-shape domain given as...
IEEE 802.11 medium access control (MAC) employs the distributed coordination function (DCF) as the fundamental medium access function. DCF operates with binary exponential backoff...
Large-scale global optimization (LSGO) is a very important and challenging task in optimization domain, which is embedded in many scientific and engineering applications. In this p...
