It has been recognised that formal methods are useful as a modelling tool in requirements engineering. Specification languages such as Z permit the precise and unambiguous modell...
We propose the first combinatorial solution to one of the most classic problems in combinatorial optimization: the generalized minimum cost flow problem (flow with losses and g...
We are given a sequence of items that can be packed into m unit size bins. In the classical bin packing problem we x the size of the bins and try to pack the items in the minimum ...
