Histogram techniques have been used in many commercial database management systems to estimate a query result size. Recently, it has been shown that they are very effective to su...
The optimization of spacecraft trajectories can be formulated as a global optimization task. The complexity of the problem depends greatly on the problem formulation, on the spacec...
There has been significant progress in the area of short-term scheduling of batch processes, including the solution of industrial-sized problems, in the last 20 years. The main go...
—We consider the problem of minimizing upper bounds and maximizing lower bounds on information rates of stationary and ergodic discrete-time channels with memory. The channels we...
