We present some results attained with two variants of the bounded dynamic programming algorithm to solve the Fm|block|Cmax problem using as experimental data the wellknown Taillard instances. We have improved the best-known ...

English: The aim of this project is to design and implement a simple and reliable system able to minimize the negative effect that users cause on the antenna performance of mobile devices when interacting with these. The ...

La coloració de grafs dibuixats a superfícies és un àrea antiga i molt estudiada de la teoria de grafs. Thomassen va demostrar que hi ha un nombre finit de grafs 6-crítics a qualsevol superfície fixa i va proporcionar el ...

We present a coding scheme which makes use of adaptive coding techniques. Since we are concerned with the H,F, channel, suitable coding schemes are needed to combat diffuse errors [1], i. e, random and burst errors, ...

This paper deals with the blind source separation. The task consists in separating some independent and linearly mixed signals called sources. After some general remarks, the model is recalled and our approach based on the ...

We present a GRASP algorithm to solve a problem that involves the sequencing of mixed products in an assembly line. The objective of the problem is to obtain a manufacturing sequence of models that generates a minimum work ...

The problem of developing a general methodology for system design has always been demanding. For this purpose, an evolutionary algorithm, adapted with design-specific representation data structures is devised. The ...

Hogan recently provided an heuristic technique called family of modes (FOM) to solve model predictive control (MPC) problems under hybrid constraints and underactuation. The goal of this study is to further develop this ...

An efficient algorithm to find the solution of transient convection–diffusion problems with dominant convection is presented. The main idea is to follow the solution front and activate those subdomains where the solution ...
