This paper considers a shift scheduling problem that includes different forms of flexibility in terms of shift starting times, break lengths and break placement. Two particular ...
Abstract. Within the field of software agents, there has been increasing interest in automating the process of calendar scheduling in recent years. Calendar (or meeting) schedulin...
In a heap model, solid blocks, or pieces, pile up according to the Tetris game mechanism. An optimal schedule is an in nite sequence of pieces minimizing the asymptotic growth rat...
The typical workload in a database system consists of a mixture of multiple queries of different types, running concurrently and interacting with each other. Hence, optimizing per...
