2004, Chang et al. suggested an approach that solves the problem of secret sharing with access structures in a hierarchy. They used the concept of discrete logarithmto reuse shado...
We investigate optimal control problems subject to mixed control-state constraints. The necessary conditions are stated in terms of a local minimum principle. By use of the Fischer...
—Ant colony optimization (ACO) is a probabilistic technique used for solving complex computational problems, such as finding optimal routes in networks. It has been proved to pe...
Genetic algorithms (GAs) have recently become very popular by solving combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we propose an extension of the hybrid genetic algorithm f...
We consider discrete stochastic optimization problems where the objective function can only be estimated by a simulation oracle; the oracle is defined only at the discrete points....
