Boolean modeling frameworks have long since proved their worth for capturing and analyzing essential characteristics of complex systems. Hybrid approaches aim at exploiting the ad...
Beam-ACO algorithms are hybrid methods that combine the metaheuristic ant colony optimization with beam search. They heavily rely on accurate and computationally inexpensive boundi...
This paper considers a single-vehicle Dial-a-Ride problem in which customers may experience stochastic delays at their pickup locations. If a customer is absent when the vehicle s...
In this paper, we introduce a new technique for modeling and solving the dynamic power management (DPM) problem for systems with complex behavioral characteristics such as concurr...
One of the most important policies adopted in inventory control is the (R,S) policy (also known as the “replenishment cycle” policy). Under the non-stationary demand assumption...
