Solving the Salinity Control Problem in a Potable Water System
Salinity is the relative concentration of salts in water. In a city of southern China, the local water supply company pumps water from a nearby river for potable use. During the wi...

Conditional Inequalities and the Shortest Common Superstring Problem
We investigate the shortest common superstring problem (SCSSP). As SCSSP is APX-complete it cannot be approximated within an arbitrarily small performance ratio. One heuristic tha...

The minimum linear arrangement problem on proper interval graphs
We present a linear time algorithm for the minimum linear arrangement problem on proper interval graphs. The obtained ordering is a 4-approximation for general interval graphs. 1 ...

Time-Indexed Formulations for Machine Scheduling Problems: Column Generation
Time-indexed formulations for machine scheduling problems have received a great deal of attention; not only do the linear programming relaxations provide strong lower bounds, but ...

Evolving Output Codes for Multiclass Problems
In this paper, we propose an evolutionary approach to the design of output codes for multiclass pattern recognition problems. This approach has the advantage of taking into account...
