We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multi-stage assembly problem. ...
In this paper, we propose a Quantified Distributed Constraint Optimization problem (QDCOP) that extends the framework of Distributed Constraint Optimization problems (DCOPs). DCOP...
Hyper-heuristics can be thought of as “heuristics to choose heuristics”. They are concerned with adaptively finding solution methods, rather than directly producing a solutio...
Petri nets are an effective formalism to model discrete event systems, and several variants have been defined to explicitly include real time in the model. We consider two fundam...
Abstract. Single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) are the most frequent form of human genetic variation. They are of fundamental importance for a variety of applications including m...
