The quadratic linear ordering problem naturally generalizes various optimization problems, such as bipartite crossing minimization or the betweenness problem, which includes linear...
—Systems on Chip (SoCs) congregate multiple modules and advanced interconnection schemes, such as networks on chip (NoCs). One relevant problem in SoC design is module mapping on...
We introduce the concept of "minimal" search algorithm for a set of functions to optimize. We investigate the structure of closed under permutation (c.u.p.) sets and we c...
Many AI tasks can be formalized as constraint satisfaction problems (CSPs), which involve finding values for variables subject to constraints. While solving a CSP is an NP-complet...
We consider the setting of a device that obtains it energy from a battery and some regenerative source such as a solar cell. We consider the speed scaling problem of scheduling a c...
