For noisy optimization problems, there is generally a trade-off between the effort spent to reduce the noise (in order to allow the optimization algorithm to run properly), and t...
This paper introduces an interface specification (PISA) that allows to separate the problem-specific part of an optimizer from the problem-independent part. We propose a view of ...

Abstract. e-Procurement is an Internet-based business process for obtaining materials and services and managing their inflow into the organization. In this paper we develop multia...
Software development project employs some Quality Control (QC) process to detect and remove defects. The final quality of the delivered software depends on the effort spent on al...
This paper discusses the impact of the hierarchical master-worker paradigm on performance of an application program, which solves an optimization problem by a parallel branch and ...
We consider a kernel-based approach to nonlinear classification that coordinates the generation of “synthetic” points (to be used in the kernel) with “chunking” (working wi...
— In this paper, we present a solution to the general problem of flow control for both unicast and multicast IP networks. We formulate a convex optimization problem that can be ...
An optimization problem is often represented with a set of variables, and the interaction between the variables is referred to as epistasis. In this paper, we propose two new measu...
In this paper, we present the application of evolutionary optimization methods to a demanding, industrially relevant engineering domain, the three-dimensional optimization of gas ...
To obtain the expertise to correctly perform minimally– invasive vascular interventions thorough training is required. Training using simulation systems are increasingly becomin...
