This paper presents new bounds, heuristics, and an exact algorithm for the Pallet Loading Problem (PLP). PLP maximizes the number of boxes placed on a rectangular pallet. All boxe...
We consider optimization problems related to the prevention of large-scale cascading blackouts in power transmission networks subject to multiple scenarios of externally caused da...
Owing to numerous potential applications, wireless sensor networks have been the focus of a lot of research efforts lately. In this note we study one fundamental issue in such net...
The bounded diameter minimum spanning tree problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem arising in particular in network design. There exist various exact and metaheuri...
Abstract. Symbolic methods for investigating Hopf bifurcation problems of vector fields arising in the context of algebraic biology have recently obtained renewed attention. Howev...
