Randomized Fast Design of Short DNA Words
We consider the problem of efficiently designing sets (codes) of equal-length DNA strings (words) that satisfy certain combinatorial constraints. This problem has numerous motivati...

Random sampling of lattice paths with constraints, via transportation
We investigate Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) procedures for the random sampling of some one-dimensional lattice paths with constraints, for various constraints. We will see that...

Maintenance scheduling problems as benchmarks for constraint algorithms
The paper focuses on evaluating constraint satisfaction search algorithms on application based random problem instances. The application we use is a well-studied problem in the el...

A Sample Approximation Approach for Optimization with Probabilistic Constraints
We study approximations of optimization problems with probabilistic constraints in which the original distribution of the underlying random vector is replaced with an empirical dis...

A Truthful Randomized Mechanism for Combinatorial Public Projects via Convex Optimization
In Combinatorial Public Projects, there is a set of projects that may be undertaken, and a set of selfinterested players with a stake in the set of projects chosen. A public plann...
