The Vehicle Routing Problem with Stochastic Demand and Duration Constraints
Time considerations have been largely ignored in the study of vehicle routing problems with stochastic demands, even though they are crucial in practice. We show that tour duratio...

Stochastic Shortest Paths Via Quasi-convex Maximization
Abstract. We consider the problem of finding shortest paths in a graph with independent randomly distributed edge lengths. Our goal is to maximize the probability that the path len...
