Hierarchical modeling of a shipyard integrated with an external scheduling application
This paper presents a hierarchical approach on the simulation of large-scale discrete event systems used recently by Kiran Consulting Group (KCG) to model shipyard operations. Bec...

A Cross-Entropy Method that Optimizes Partially Decomposable Problems: A New Way to Interpret NMR Spectra
Some real-world problems are partially decomposable, in that they can be decomposed into a set of coupled subproblems, that are each relatively easy to solve. However, when these ...

Evaluating Ranking Composition Methods for Multi-Objective Optimization of Knowledge Rules
Most symbolic classifiers aim at building sets of rules with good coverage and precision. While this is suitable for most applications, they tend to neglect other desirable proper...

Iterative Methods in Combinatorial Optimization
We describe a simple iterative method for proving a variety of results in combinatorial optimization. It is inspired by Jain’s iterative rounding method (FOCS 1998) for designing...

A numerical method for the optimal control of switched systems
Switched dynamical systems have shown great utility in modeling a variety of systems. Unfortunately, the determination of a numerical solution for the optimal control of such syste...
