High order fitted operator numerical method for self-adjoint singular perturbation problems
We consider self-adjoint singularly perturbed two-point boundary value problems in conservation form. Highest possible order of uniform convergence for such problems achieved hith...

If Not Turing's Test, Then What?
If it is true that good problems produce good science, then it will be worthwhile to identify good problems, and even more worthwhile to discover the attributes that make them goo...

: Compiling problem specifications into SAT
We present a compiler that translates a problem specification into a propositional satisfiability test (SAT). Problems are specified in a logic-based language, called NP-SPEC, whi...

Socially relevant computing
In this paper, we introduce socially relevant computing as a new way to reinvigorate interest in computer science. Socially relevant computing centers on the use of computation to...

Deblurring Methods Using Antireflective Boundary Conditions
In this note we consider the numerical solution of selfadjoint deblurring problems on bounded intervals. For these problems it has recently been shown that appropriate modelling of...

Explicit Reformulations for Robust Optimization Problems with General Uncertainty Sets
We consider a rather general class of mathematical programming problems with data uncertainty, where the uncertainty set is represented by a system of convex inequalities. We prove...

The Exact Feasibility of Randomized Solutions of Uncertain Convex Programs
Many optimization problems are naturally delivered in an uncertain framework, and one would like to exercise prudence against the uncertainty elements present in the problem. In pr...

Duality in Linear Programming Problems Related to Deterministic Long Run Average Problems of Optimal Control
It has been established recently that, under mild conditions, deterministic long run average problems of optimal control are "asymptotically equivalent" to infinite-dimen...
