We propose an improved restart strategy for randomized backtrack search, and evaluate its performance by comparing to other heuristic and stochastic search techniques for solving r...
Recent work has shown the promise in using local-search “probes” as a basis for directing a backtracking-based refinement search. In this approach, the decision about the next...

The increasing constraints on power consumption in many computing systems point to the need for power modeling and estimation for all components of a system. The Operating System ...
Abstract. We study in this lecture the literature on mixed integer programming models and formulations for a specific problem class, namely deterministic production planning probl...
