Numerous mathematical approaches have been proposed to determine the optimal checkpoint interval for minimizing total execution time of an application in the presence of failures....
In this paper, we consider the fast simulation of traffic groomed optical networks, in which multiple sub-rate traffic streams may be carried on the same wavelength. For real-size...
Abstract. Based on the recent approach of Bertsimas and Sim (2004, 2003) to robust optimization in the presence of data uncertainty, we prove an easily computable and simple bound ...
In this paper we discuss multiperiod portfolio selection problems related to a speci…c provisioning problem. Our results are an extension of Dhaene et al. (2005), where optimal ...
Many mathematical models exist for describing the behavior of TCP/IP (TCP: transmission control protocol) under an exogenous loss process that does not depend on the window size. ...
