—Model-based test derivation for real-time system has been proven to be a hard problem for exhaustive test suites. Therefore, techniques for real-time testing do not aim to exhau...
We consider a robust model proposed by Scarf, 1958, for stochastic optimization when only the marginal probabilities of (binary) random variables are given, and the correlation be...
The paper presents an efficient solution to decision problems where direct partial information on the distribution of the states of nature is available, either by observations of ...
Markov Networks (also known as Markov Random Fields) have been proposed as a new approach to probabilistic modelling in Estimation of Distribution Algorithms (EDAs). An EDA employ...

Continuous-variable simulation optimization problems are those optimization problems where the objective function is computed through stochastic simulation and the decision variab...
