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...
A practical warm-start procedure is described for the infeasible primal-dualinterior-point method employed to solve the restricted master problem within the cutting-plane method. ...
Proximal bundle methods have been shown to be highly successful optimization methods for unconstrained convex problems with discontinuous first derivatives. This naturally leads ...
We present an acceleration of the well-established Krylov-Ritz methods to compute the sign function of large complex matrices, as needed in lattice QCD simulations involving the o...
In this paper, a Jacobi-collocation spectral method is developed for Volterra integral equations of the second kind with a weakly singular kernel. We use some function transformati...
