When time is incorporated in the specification of discrete systems, the complexity of verification grows exponentially. When the temporal behavior is specified with symbols, the ve...
Constraint-based techniques are frequently used in solving real-life scheduling problems thanks to natural modeling capabilities and strong constraint propagation techniques encod...
In previous work, we have presented a novel global feasibility solver for the large system of quadratic constraints that arise as subproblems in the solving of hard hybrid problems...

—We study two convex optimization problems in a multi-class M/G/1 queue with adjustable service rates: minimizing convex functions of the average delay vector, and minimizing ave...
This paper presents different methods for solving parallel machine scheduling problems with precedence constraints and setup times between the jobs. Limited discrepancy search met...
