—This paper deals with the Space Mapping (SM) approach to engineering design optimization. We attempt here a theoretical justification of methods that have already proven efficie...
Abstract—This paper presents a systematic approach for the design of temperature controller using genetic algorithms (GAs) for thermal power plant subsystems and investigates the...
— This paper proposes a distributed optimization framework for wireless multihop sensor networks base on a game theoretic approach. We show that the cross-layer optimization prob...
This work describes a stochastic approach for the optimal placement of sensors in municipal water networks to detect maliciously injected contaminants. The model minimizes the exp...
We consider the problem of dynamic buying and selling of shares from a collection of N stocks with random price fluctuations. To limit investment risk, we place an upper bound on t...
