Instruction scheduling is one of the most important steps for improving the performance of object code produced by a compiler. A fundamental problem that arises in instruction sch...
Background: The protein folding problem remains one of the most challenging open problems in computational biology. Simplified models in terms of lattice structure and energy func...
Generalized geometric programming (GGP) is an optimization method in which the objective function and constraints are nonconvex functions. Thus, a GGP problem includes multiple lo...
Constraint programming is a powerful paradigm that offers many different strategies for solving problems. Choosing a good strategy is difficult; choosing a poor strategy wastes r...
