The traveling salesman problem with time windows is known to be a really difficult benchmark for optimization algorithms. In this paper, we are interested in the minimization of th...
Abstract. A methodology is presented for tackling mixed-integer nonlinear optimization problems by local search, in particular large-scale real-life problems. This methodology is i...
Abstract. Electronic embedded systems designers aim at finding a tradeoff between cost and power consumption. As cache memory management has been shown to have a significant imp...
—We address the problem of selecting a banner advertisement, based on the profile of the online user. The profile consists of the set of webpages opened by the online user, opt...

Abstract—A variational approach is proposed for the unsupervised assessment of attribute variability of high-dimensional data given a differentiable similarity measure. The key q...
Abstract To improve software quality, static or dynamic defect-detection tools accept programming rules as input and detect their violations in software as defects. As these progra...
In prime event structures with binary conflicts (pes-bc)3 a branching cell [1] is a subset of events closed under downward causality and immediate conflict relations. This means ...
