ABSTRACT: This article examines some of the properties of quasi-Fejer sequences when used in quasi-gradiental techniques as an alternative to stochastic search techniques for optimizing unconstrained ...

This paper presents a novel approach to the joint optimization of job scheduling and data allocation in grid computing environments. We formulate this joint optimization problem as a mixed integer ...

Aim to minimize the combined fixed and transportation costs by deciding which of five plants to keep open or what have to close.

Mixed-integer nonlinear programming (MINLP) optimisation constitutes a critical methodology in tackling complex decision-making problems where both discrete choices and continuous variables are ...

Integer programming, a cornerstone of combinatorial optimisation, focuses on the selection of discrete decision variables to solve complex real‐world problems such as scheduling, network design and ...
