Analytical models for the dynamics of some discrete event systems are introduced where the system trajectories are solutions to linear and mixed-integer programs. 1 BACKGROUND The...
We prove strong lower bounds on integrality gaps of Sherali?Adams relaxations for MAX CUT, Vertex Cover, Sparsest Cut and other problems. Our constructions show gaps for Sherali?A...

In the directed acyclic graph (dag) model of algorithms, consider the following problem for precedence-constrained multiprocessor schedules for array computations: Given a sequenc...
: The Poisson–Boltzmann equation (PBE) is an established model for the electrostatic analysis of biomolecules. The development of advanced computational techniques for the soluti...
This paper discusses and compares several policies to place replicas in tree networks, subject to server capacity and QoS constraints. The client requests are known beforehand, wh...
