Traditional multiple query optimization methods focus on identifying common subexpressions in sets of relational queries and on constructing their global execution plans. In this p...
All-optical packet switching is a promising candidate for future high-speed switching. However, due to the absence of optical Random Access Memory, the traditional Virtual Output ...
We consider a combination of the capacitated vehicle routing problem and a class of additional loading constraints involving a parallel machine scheduling problem. The work is mot...
