Many models of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) assume a perfect synchronization along the graph of such network as a simplifying assumption. In our contribution we base our invest...
Identifying small groups of lines, whose removal would cause a severe blackout, is critical for the secure operation of the electric power grid. We show how power grid vulnerabilit...

We consider the problem of segmenting an image into foreground and background, with foreground containing solely objects of interest known a priori. We propose an integration mode...
Credit institutions are seldom faced with problems dealing with single objectives. Often, decisions involving optimizing two or more competing goals simultaneously need to be made...
