We present an iterative cutting plane method for minimizing staffing costs in a service system subject to satisfying acceptable service level requirements over multiple time perio...
Dot maps--drawings of point sets--are a well known cartographic method to visualize density functions over an area. We study the problem of simplifying a given dot map: given a se...
