Real-world routing problems are often represented by large and complex models, and instances of realistic size are very hard to solve. In most cases one ca...

A stochastic control model is proposed as a paradigm for the design of optimal timing of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions abatement. The resolution of unce...

A weighted multivariate signed-rank test is introduced for an analysis of multivariate clustered data. Observations in different clusters may then get diffe...

This paper deals with the stability analysis and the stabilization for the class of continuous-time systems with time-varying delay. The time delay is as...

This paper describes a new heuristic for the well-known <i>Undirected Rural Postman Problem</i>. It consists of two steps: it first constructs a partial so...

<p> This paper investigates the effects of in-store availability on price matching guarantees (PMGs). Under the simplest form of PMG implementation, a fir...

This chapter deals with the control of production systems and presents models for production and maintenance planning. The production systems are sup...

This papers deals with the tracking problem for the Markov Jump systems with external finite energy disturbance. A state feedback controller that makes the...

Cet article vise l'analyse du type de modélisation des problèmes tests utilisés par les chercheurs pour valider leurs stratégies de pilotage des systèmes d...

This paper deals with the class of linear discrete-time systems with random abrupt changes also known as class of Markovian jump singular systems. Th...

With the help of the AutoGraphiX system, we study relations of the form

<img src="/cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi?\underline{b}m \le i1(G) \oplus i_2(G) \le \overl...

In this paper, the problem of <img src="/cgi-bin/mimetex.cgi?{\cal H}_\infty"> controller design for Markovian singular systems with discontinuities (M...

Price-matching-guarantees (PMGs) are offers by firms whereby they assure customers that they will match any lower price offered by the competition for an i...

In this paper, we study a decentralized supply chain in which the manufacturer sells a short lifecycle product using wholesale price (only) contracts to a ...

In this paper, we propose a tree-based method for multivariate outcomes consisting in a mixture of categorical and continuous responses. The split function...

Routing for shared protection has received a lot of interest in the last few years. A large number of the studies focus on minimizing the network transport ...

This paper attempts to shed an empirical light on so-called jump bidding in ascending auctions. There is a jump when a participant in an auction outbids t...

In this paper, we consider the nonparametric Behrens-Fisher problem with cluster correlated data. A class of weighted Mann-Whitney test statistics are intr...

How can a cooperative agreement made at the start of a dynamic game can be sustained over time? Early work has avoided this question by supposing that the...

Clusterwise regression is a technique for clustering data. Instead of using the classical homogeneity or separation criterion, clusterwise regression is ba...
