We describe the problem of scheduling astronomy observations for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, an airborne telescope. The problem requires maximizing the nu...
In this paper we introduce and investigate a new" path optimization problem which we denote as the All Hops Optimal Path AHOP problem. The problem involves identifying, for a...
In a M/M/N+M queue, when there are many customers waiting, it may be preferable to reject a new arrival rather than risk that arrival later abandoning without receiving service. O...
The convergence of iterative methods used to solve the linear systems arising in incompressible flow problems is sensitive to flow parameters such as the Reynolds number, time s...
Abstract. Dynamicprogramming is an importantalgorithm design technique. It is used for solving problems whose solutions involve recursively solving subproblems that share subsubpro...
