A facility has to be located within a given region taking two criteria of equity and efficiency into account. Equity is sought by minimizing the inequality in the inhabitant-facil...
Random data placement has recently emerged as an alternative to traditional data striping. From a performance perspective, it has been demonstrated to be an efficient and scalable...
We describe an innovative solution to the problem of scheduling astronomy observations for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, an airborne observatory. The probl...
We combine mixed integer linear programming (MILP) and constraint programming (CP) to solve planning and scheduling problems. Tasks are allocated to facilities using MILP and sche...
The performance of many modern computer and communication systems is dictated by the latency of communication pipelines. At the same time, power/energy consumption is often another...
