We investigate the computational complexity of finding an element of a permutation group H Sn with a minimal distance to a given Sn, for different metrics on Sn. We assume that...
The maintenance of organisation is a prerequisite for all viable systems in dynamic environments. In many living systems this organisation is, in part, achieved through coordinati...
We propose a multivariate statistical framework for regional development assessment based on structural equation modelling with latent variables and show how such methods can be c...
The Shifting Bottleneck (SB) heuristic is among the most successful approximation methods for solving the Job Shop problem. It is essentially a machine based decomposition procedu...
Recently the term Web Services choreography has been introduced to address some issues related to Web Services composition and coordination. Several proposals for describing chore...
