—Programming Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) applications is known to be a difficult task. Part of the problem is that the resource limitations of typical WSN nodes force programm...
Synchronous languages like Esterel have been widely adopted for designing reactive systems in safety-critical domains such as avionics. Specifications written in Esterel are based...

A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
Abstract. We propose a unifying framework for polyhedral approximation in convex optimization. It subsumes classical methods, such as cutting plane and simplicial decomposition, bu...
Abstract. We present a new “lifting” approach for the solution of nonlinear optimization problems (NLPs) that have objective and constraint functions with intermediate variable...
