Consider a multiobjective decision problem with uncertainty in the objective functions, given as set of scenarios. In single-criterion case, robust optimization methodology helps to identify solutions which remain feasible and good quality for all possible A well-known alternative method single-objective case is compare decisions under optimal benefit hindsight, i.e. minimize (possibly scaled) ...

in this paper, shortest path design problem (spdp) in which the path is incident to all cells is considered. the bi-directional path is one of the known types of configuration of networks for automated guided vehi-cles (agv).to solve this problem, two algorithms are developed. for each algorithm an integer linear pro-gramming (ilp) is determined. the objective functions of both algorithms are t...

protein structural flexibility is important for catalysis, binding, protein design, and allostery. some simple methods have recently been introduced to compute protein flexibility directly from the protein structure without any mechanical models. for example the atomic mean square displacement (or b-factor) is related to the number of neighboring atoms. the protein structure can be modeled as a...

Advancements in mobile technology and computing have fostered the collection of a large number of civic datasets that capture the pulse of urban life. Furthermore, the open government and data initiative has led many local authorities to make these datasets publicly available, hoping to drive innovation that will further improve the quality of life for the city-dwellers. In this paper, we devel...
