We examine the theoretical and numerical global convergence properties of a certain "gradient free" stochastic approximation algorithm called the "simultaneous pertu...
Database systems are being more and more used, with larger sized databases, and as components of very complex systems, that include numerous protocols. Database security problems ...
For complex systems, traditional methods of experiencebased design are ineffective: the design task must be supported by simulations. Conceptual design and system-level detailed d...
Two metaheuristic methods based on Tabu search are introduced to assign judges to individual competitions in a tournament. The complexity of the mathematical formulation accounting...
We suggest a local hybrid approximation scheme based on polynomials and radial basis functions, and use it to modify the scattered data fitting algorithm of [7]. Similar to that a...
