Designing Multi - Commodity Flow

The traditional multi-commodity ow problem assumes a given ow network in which multiple commodities are to be maximally routed in response to given demands. This paper considers the multi-commodity ow network-design problem: given a set of multi-commodity ow demands, nd a network subject to certain constraints such that the commodities can be maximally routed. This paper focuses on the case whe...

Designing Multi-Commodity Flow Trees

The traditional multi-commodity flow problem assumes a given flow network in which multiple commodities are to be maximally routed in response to given demands. This paper considers the multi-commodity flow network-desigu problem: given a set of multi-commodity flow demands, find a network subject to certain constraints such that the commodities can be maximally routed.

Designing a Java-based Grid Scheduler using Commodity Services

Common approaches to implementing Grid schedulers usually rely directly on relatively low-level protocols and services, to benefit from better performances by having full control of file and network usage patterns. Following this approach, the schedulers are bound to particular network protocols, communication patterns and persistence layers. With the availability of standardized highlevel appl...

Designing and Validating an Agent-based Commodity Trading Simulation∗

In this paper, an agent-based commodity trading simulation platform is presented, with focus on simulation design and validation. We propose a novel combination of event-based approach and event study method for market dynamics generation and validation. In our event-based approach, the simulation is progressed by announcing news events that affect various aspects of the commodity supply chain....
