When identical charges repel each other but are confined to the surface of a sphere, they seek the arrangement with the lowest possible energy. The idea is simple, but the problem gets harder to solve ...

Many collective-action problems require unrelated individuals to cooperate. Such problems can be difficult to solve, particularly when actors are heterogeneous. For example, actors often differ in ...
ABSTRACT: This paper presents a new dimension reduction strategy for medium and large-scale linear programming problems. The proposed method uses a subset of the original constraints and combines two ...
Computed tomography-tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (CT-TDLAS) has been widely used in the diagnosis of the combustion flow field. Several optimized CT reconstruction algorithms such as ...
Behavioral data, collected from our daily interactions with technology, have driven scientific advances. Yet, the collection and sharing of this data raise legitimate privacy concerns, as individuals ...
Uncertainties are widespread in the optimization of process systems, such as uncertainties in process technologies, prices, and customer demands. In this paper, we review the basic concepts and recent ...
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this paper is to introduce a new pivot rule of the simplex algorithm. The simplex algorithm first presented by George B. Dantzig, is a widely used method for solving a linear ...
