Stochastic programming approach to optimization under uncertainty
In this paper we discuss computational complexity and risk averse approaches to two and multistage stochastic programming problems. We argue that two stage (say linear) stochastic ...

A Branch-and-Cut Algorithm for the Dial-a-Ride Problem
In the dial-a-ride problem, users formulate requests for transportation from a specific origin to a specific destination. Transportation is carried out by vehicles providing a sha...

The Stochastic Machine Replenishment Problem
We study the stochastic machine replenishment problem, which is a canonical special case of closed multiclass queuing systems in Markov decision theory. The problem models the sche...

Why evolution is not a good paradigm for program induction: a critique of genetic programming
We revisit the roots of Genetic Programming (i.e. Natural Evolution), and conclude that the mechanisms of the process of evolution (i.e. selection, inheritance and variation) are ...

Combining Exact and Heuristic Approaches for the Capacitated Fixed-Charge Network Flow Problem
We develop a solution approach for the fixed charge network flow problem (FCNF) that produces provably high-quality solutions quickly. The solution approach combines mathematica...
