: Aimed at detection of parallel assembly modes, a method for assembly graph construction is described that is based on the systematic generation and analysis of precedence relatio...
The properties of the barrier F(x) = -log(det(x)), defined over the cone of squares of a Euclidean Jordan algebra, are analyzed using pure algebraic techniques. Furthermore, relat...
This paper studies the duality gap in the simple plant location problem, and presents general formulas for the gap when certain complementary slackness conditions are satisfied. W...
In a network of subassembly lines, balance becomes more difficult to achieve as it requires that all subassembly lines be synchronized to produce at the same rate. We show how to ...

We consider the problem of sharing the fixed costs of facilities among a number of users. Although the problem can be formulated and solved as an Integer Programme this provides l...
