In this paper we illustrate a new methodology for the design of fault-tolerant logical topologies in wavelength-routed optical networks exploiting wavelengt...
BibTeX reference
This paper addresses the problem whether a cooperative agreement, made at the start of a game, can be sustained over time. The players can reopen negotiatio...
BibTeX reference
We analyze the extent to which intergenerational teams provide information on workers' productivity in the long run. We use a dynamic stochastic framework ...
BibTeX reference
The Esau-Williams algorithm is one of the best known heuristics for the Capacitated Minimum Spanning Tree Problem. This research note describes a simple en...
BibTeX reference
Inspired by previous results on asymptotic minimax estimation for a ball of increasing radius in R<sup><i>n</i></sup>, we study the analogous problem for do...
BibTeX reference
In this article we propose a model for the topological design problem of multitechnology networks that includes the location of switches and their port conf...
BibTeX referenceThe Integration of an Interior-Point Cutting Plane Method within a Branch-and-Price Algorithm
This paper presents a novel integration of interior point cutting plane methods within branch-and-price algorithms. Unlike the classical method, columns are...
BibTeX reference
This paper deals with sensitivity analysis (gradient estimation) of random horizon performance measures of Markov chains. More precisely, we consider genera...
BibTeX reference
This article reports on some recent algorithmic development for the <i>Rural Postman Problem</i> (CPP) and for the <i>Capacitated Arc Routing Problem</i> (C...
BibTeX reference
The <i>p</i>-Center problem consists in locating <i>p</i> facilities and assigning clients to them in order to minimize the maximum distance between a clien...
BibTeX referenceAn Optimization Model for the Simultaneous Operational Flight and Pilot Scheduling Problem
This paper describes and solves the operational pilot scheduling problem for one day of operations. The problem consists in simultaneously modifying, as nec...
BibTeX reference
On the basis of a variable-neighbourhood search with the AutoGraphiX software, it is conjectured that for even numbers of atoms the fully conjugated acycli...
BibTeX reference
A fuzzy clustering problem consists in assigning a set of patterns to a given number of clusters with respect to some criteria such that each of them may be...
BibTeX referenceLocation-Arc Routing Problems
<i>Location-Arc Routing Problems</i> (LARPs) are encountered in contexts where it is necessary to simultaneously determine a traversal of a subset of edges ...
BibTeX referenceStable Sets and Chromatic Number
A generalization of the Roy-Gallai theorem is presented: it is based on the existence in any oriented graph of a stable set S such that for any node <i>w</i...
BibTeX reference
This paper presents a dynamic programming approach for the solution of the Unit Loading Problem in hydroplant management. The model accounts for losses in t...
BibTeX reference
Maximum Clique is one of the most studied NP-hard optimization problem on graphs because of its simplicity and its numerous applications. A basic Variable N...
BibTeX referenceRecherche de la structure optimale d'un réseau d'accès avec raccordement des usagers en arbre
Le problème traité dans ce rapport est celui de la conception de réseaux d'accès utilisant la technologie SONET et ayant une topologie en arbre. Nous dévelo...
BibTeX referenceThe Theory of Exact Inference for Change Points in an Exponential Hazard Rate Model with Censoring
The goal in many data analyses is to produce brief summaries which convey the key conclusions. This will be particularly important in survival analysis in m...
