Optimal Coding Subgraph Selection under Survivability Constraint

Nowadays communication networks have become an essential and inevitable part of human life. Hence, there is an ever-increasing need for expanding bandwidth, decreasing delay and data transfer costs. These needs necessitate the efficient use of network facilities. Network coding is a new paradigm that allows the intermediate nodes in a network to create new packets by combining the packets recei...

Queue with Heterogeneous Server Under Resequencing Constraint

In this paper, a markovian queue with two types of servers and buffer space is considered. The resequencing constraint is imposed according to which the customers leave the system in the same order in which they entered it. For finite buffer queue, the steady state queue size distribution has been obtained.?

Optimal Design of Geometrically Nonlinear Structures Under a Stability Constraint

This paper suggests an optimization-based methodology for the design of minimum weight structures with kinematic nonlinear behavior. Attention is focused on three-dimensional reticulated structures idealized with beam elements under proportional static loadings. The algorithm used for optimization is based on a classical optimality criterion approach using an active-set strategy for extreme lim...
