In this paper we formulate the static load balancing problem in single class job distributed systems as a cooperative game among computers. It is shown that the Nash Bargaining So...

We investigate Monte Carlo Markov Chain (MCMC) procedures for the random sampling of some one-dimensional lattice paths with constraints, for various constraints. We will see that...
Given the increasing traffic on the World Wide Web (Web), it is difficult for a single popular Web server to handle the demand from its many clients. By clustering a group of Web ...
We present a geometric approach to statistical shape analysis of closed curves in images. The basic idea is to specify a space of closed curves satisfying given constraints, and e...

The portfolio optimization problem is modeled as a mean-risk bicriteria optimization problem where the expected return is maximized and some (scalar) risk measure is minimized. In ...
