Multi-commodity flow models are well known and have been widely used in the design of packet-switched networks. They have also been used as approximations ...

This paper presents a sophisticated mixed integer linear programming model developed to help the regional decision makers in the long-term planning of the s...

We present an algorithm for variational inequalities <i>VI</i>( <img src="G9756.gif" align=bottom>,<i>Y</i>) that is based on the Analytic Center Cutting Pl...

We analyze the process of a two cut generation scheme in the analytic center cutting plane method. We propose an optimal restoration direction when the two...

We present a general methodology to study the electricity market of a country or region, under various pricing mechanisms. The approach is based on modifica...

We study the set of lower bounds which have been proposed for the numbering of a complete graph. We first show that the computation of most of them can be ...

This paper presents a framework to assess a performability measure in a urban transportation network given the possibility of an accident condition. This fr...

Cellular networks must be updated very often. Due to technical and economical reasons, the complete channel resetting of an urban network has to be done in...

We consider a managerial economics problem of controlling pollution caused by decentralised agents. We build a mathematical model for a local government ai...

We propose a greedy heuristic and a Tabu Search type heuristic for channel block assignment subject to co-channel, adjacent channel, co-site constraints as ...

One of the main advantages of the discrete wavelet representation is the near-optimal estimation of signals corrupted with noise. After the seminal work of ...

In this paper, we study the moments of cumulative processes. More specifically, we will evaluate explicitly the expectation of a product of <i>n</i> distinc...

This article describes a lower bounding procedure and heuristics for the <i>Cycle Cover Problem</i> which consists of determining a least cost cover of an u...

The analytic center cutting plane (ACCPM) methods aims to solve nondifferentiable convex problems. The technique consists of building an increasingly refine...

Good heuristic solutions for large Multisource Weber problems can be obtained by solving related <i>p</i>-median problems in which potential locations of th...

This paper introduces a new type of constraints, related to schedule synchronization, in the problem formulation of aircraft fleet assignment and routing pr...

A combinatorial approach is used to derive asymptotic expressions for arbitrary moments of cumulative vector renewal reward processes, as the time horizon <...

An econometric model is developed and used to estimate price promotion effects on sales for the yogourt category in a Quebec market. More specifically, the...

This paper classifies research contributions on decomposition approach for solving mathematical programming problems. More than 60 papers are presented with...

In this paper we investigate the quadratic stability and quadratic stabilizability of the class of continuous-time linear systems with Markovian jumps and n...
