In this paper, we develop heuristics for finding good starting points when solving large-scale nonlinear constrained optimization problems (COPs). We focus on nonlinear programmi...
Tightly coupled parallel applications are increasingly run in Grid environments. Unfortunately, on many Grid sites the ability of machines to create or accept network connections ...
Forma analysis provides an approach to formally derive domain specific operators based on domain-independent operator templates by manipulating a set of equivalence relations (i....
The Unit Commitment Problem (UCP) is the task of finding an optimal turn on and turn off schedule for a group of power generation units over a given time horizon to minimize ope...
Abstract. We introduce a new general polynomial-time constructionthe fibre construction- which reduces any constraint satisfaction problem CSP(H) to the constraint satisfaction pr...
