Conditioning of convex piecewise linear stochastic programs
In this paper we consider stochastic programming problems where the objective function is given as an expected value of a convex piecewise linear random function. With an optimal s...

A computational model for telomere-dependent cell-replicative aging
Telomere shortening provides a molecular basis for the Hayflick limit. Recent data suggest that telomere shortening also influence mitotic rate. We propose a stochastic growth mod...

Generalized approximate counting revisited
A large class of q-distributions is defined on the stochastic model of Bernoulli trials in which the probability of success (=advancing to the next level) depends geometrically on...

Approximation of Event Probabilities in Noisy Cellular Processes
Molecular noise, which arises from the randomness of the discrete events in the cell, significantly influences fundamental biological processes. Discrete-state continuous-time st...

Stochastic modeling of airlift operations
Large-scale military deployments require transporting equipment and personnel over long distances in a short time. Planning an efficient airlift system is complicated and several ...
