— The rapid transit network design problem considers at upper level the list of potential transit corridors and stations to design the network as a discrete space of alternatives...
The problem of optimal synthesis of an integrated water system is addressed in this work, where water using processes and water treatment operations are combined into a single net...
: Recent work on social networks has tackled the measurement and optimization of these networks’ robustness and resilience to both failures and attacks. Different metrics have be...
In this paper, we investigate the cell design of bacteria during the exponential growth. To this purpose, we propose to formulate the problem as a non differentiable convex optimiz...
Designing an optimal overlay communication network for a set of processes on the Internet is a central problem of peer-to-peer (P2P) computing. Such a network defines membership a...
