— In this paper, we propose a control strategy to improve the combustion efficiency of Spark Ignited engines. More precisely, we adapt the spark ignition time according to varia...
We study time delay estimation (TDE) on parallel channels with flat fading. Several models for the channel gains are considered, and for each case we present the the maximum like...
From a real-time perspective, the Garbage Collector (GC) introduces unpredictable pauses that are not tolerated by real-time tasks. Real-time collectors eliminate this problem but...
: In this paper, we present and analyze three different algorithms for the evaluation of rare event simulation results. They are loosely based on the AAc method, which in turn is a...
A parallel simulated annealing algorithm to solve the vehicle routing problem with time windows is presented. The objective is to find the best possible solutions to some wellkno...
