— In this paper, we consider the thermal placement problem for gate arrays. We introduce a new combinatorial optimization problem, matrix synthesis problem (MSP), to model the th...
A graph H is computable if there is a graph G = (V, E) isomorphic to H where the set V of vertices and the edge relation E are both computable. In this case G is called a computabl...
: The generalized problem of placing n queens on an n-by-n board provides an "embarrassingly parallel" problem for parallel solution. This paper expands on the discussion...
We initiate a novel study of clustering problems. Rather than specifying an explicit objective function to optimize, our framework allows the user of clustering algorithm to speci...
ust control problems can be formulated in abstract form as convex feasibility programs, where one seeks a solution x that satisfies a set of inequalities of the form F . = {f (x,...
