Abstract. An optimization problem arising in the design of optical fibre networks is discussed. A network contains client nodes, each installed on one or more SONET rings. A const...
The field of stochastic optimization studies decision making under uncertainty, when only probabilistic information about the future is available. Finding approximate solutions to...
In this paper, a generic optimization problem arising in supply chain design is modeled in a game theoretic framework and solved as a decentralized problem using a mechanism desig...
We consider the problem of integrating a large number of interface schemas over the Deep Web, The scale of the problem and the diversity of the sources present serious challenges ...
Abstract. Power-balanced instruction scheduling for Very Long Instruction Word (VLIW) processors is an optimization problem which requires a good instruction-level power model for ...

In order to safeguard a sensitive database, we must ensure both its privacy and its longevity. However, privacy and longevity tend to be competing objectives. We show how to desig...

We present two new support vector approaches for ordinal regression. These approaches find the concentric spheres with minimum volume that contain most of the training samples. B...
We consider the problem of query optimization in distributed stream based systems where multiple continuous queries may be executing simultaneously. In such systems, distribution ...

Event-driven distributed infrastructures are becoming increasingly important for information dissemination and application integration. We examine the problem of optimal resource ...
Internet search companies sell advertisement slots based on users’ search queries via an auction. Advertisers have to solve a complex optimization problem of how to place bids o...
