We consider the problem of finding a singularity of a differentiable vector field X defined on a complete Riemannian manifold. We prove a unified result for the existence and local...
The Cell Formation Problem is a crucial component of a cell production design in a manufacturing system. This problem consists of a set of product parts to be manufactured in a gr...

Many real world industrial applications involve finding a Hamiltonian path with minimum cost. Some instances that belong to this category are transportation routing problem, scan c...
This paper presents a dynamic (or multi-period) hub location problem. It proposes a branch-and-bound algorithm that uses a Lagrangean relaxation to obtain lower and upper bounds a...
