The protein folding problem consists of predicting the functional (native) structure of the protein given its linear sequence of amino acids. Despite extensive progress made in un...
We introduce a master–worker framework for parallel global optimization of computationally expensive functions using response surface models. In particular, we parallelize two r...
Wireless sensor network (WSN) applications sense events in-situ and compute results in-network. Their software components should run on platforms with stringent constraints on nod...
There has been significant progress in the area of short-term scheduling of batch processes, including the solution of industrial-sized problems, in the last 20 years. The main go...
We propose an efficient scheme for evaluating nonlinear subspace forces (and Jacobians) associated with subspace deformations. The core problem we address is efficient integration...
