Battery-powered wireless sensors are severely constrained by the amount of the available energy. A method for computing the energy budget per sensing task can be a valuable design...
Dynamic voltage scaling (DVS) circuits have been widely adopted in many computing systems to provide tradeoff between performance and power consumption. The effective use of energ...
In the past decade, energy-efficiency has been an important system design issue in both hardware and software managements. For mobile applications with critical missions, both ene...
We propose a hybrid algorithm (called ALPINE) between Genetic Algorithm and Dantzig's Simplex method to approximate optimal solutions for the Flexible Job-Shop Problem. Local...
We describe an innovative solution to the problem of scheduling astronomy observations for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, an airborne observatory. The probl...
