The class of stochastic nonlinear programming (SNLP) problems is important in optimization due to the presence of nonlinearity and uncertainty in many applications, including thos...
The view selection problem is to choose a set of views to materialize over a database schema, such that the cost of evaluating a set of workload queries is minimized and such that ...
Abstract-- We present a new, biologically-inspired algorithm for the problem of covering a given region with wireless "units" (sensors or base-stations). The general prob...
This paper considers packing problems with balancing conditions and items consisting of clusters of parallelepipeds (mutually orthogonal, i.e. tetris-like items). This issue is qu...
We present initial work on perturbation techniques that cause the manifestation of timing-related bugs in distributed memory Message Passing Interface (MPI)-based applications. Th...
