In this work a new optimization method, called the heuristic Kalman algorithm (HKA), is presented. This new algorithm is proposed as an alternative approach for solving continuous,...

This paper presents a novel broadband multimedia service called TV-Anytime. The basic idea of this service is to store broadcast media assets onto media server systems and allow c...
The Maximal Covering Location Problem (MCLP) maximizes the population that has a facility within a maximum travel distance or time. Numerous extensions have been proposed to enhan...
Some telecommunication systems can not afford the cost of repeating a corrupted message. Instead, the message should be somewhat “corrected” by the receiver. In these cases a...
