In this paper, we study the benefits of advertising wavelength availability in a distributed lightpath establishment environment by extensive simulations. Various cases with diffe...
The ULV decomposition (ULVD) is an important member of a class of rank-revealing two-sided orthogonal decompositions used to approximate the singular value decomposition (SVD). Th...
Abstract We are dealing with the optimal, i.e. densest packings of congruent circles into the unit square. In the recent years we have built a numerically reliable, verified method...
In this paper, we study a bidding problem which can be modeled as a set packing problem. A simulated annealing heuristic with three local moves, including an embedded branch-and-b...
We observe returns of a simple random walk on a finite graph to a fixed node, and would like to infer properties of the graph, in particular properties of the spectrum of the trans...
