We consider several classical models in deterministic inventory theory: the single-item lot-sizing problem, the joint replenishment problem, and the multi-stage assembly problem. ...
Automakers are still facing an increasing complexity in vehicle requirements with regard to their EE systems. This complexity is not only caused by innovations, which are being pr...
Web search engines are often implemented as centralized systems. Designing and implementing a Web search engine in a distributed environment is a challenging engineering task that...

We analyze the problem of preventing outgoing spam. We show that some conventional techniques for limiting outgoing spam are likely to be ineffective. We show that while imposing...
The emergence of large-scale freeform shapes in architecture poses big challenges to the fabrication of such structures. A key problem is the approximation of the design surface b...
