For a finite set of points S, the (monochromatic) Reverse Nearest Neighbor (RNN) rule associates with any query point q the subset of points in S that have q as its nearest neighb...
The criterion of total weighted completion time occurs as a sub-problem of combinatorial optimization problems in such diverse areas as scheduling, container loading and storage a...
Primal-dual Interior-Point Methods (IPMs) have shown their ability in solving large classes of optimization problems efficiently. Feasible IPMs require a strictly feasible startin...
A good legal knowledge representation system, capable of effectively providing investors with comprehensive legal knowledge, is needed for investors to prevent erratic behavior be...
This paper proposes a bio-inspired approach tailored to the construction of a Grid information system in which content, specifically metadata descriptors that specify the characte...
