DNA sequence comparison and database search have evolved in the last years as a field of strong competition between several reconfigurable hardware computing groups. In this paper we present a BLAST preprocessor that efficiently marks the parts of the data ...
International sea-freight container transport has grown dramatically over the last years and container terminals play nowadays a key-role in the global shipping network. Increasing competition and competitiveness among terminals require more and more effic ...
Seaport container terminals are source of many interesting large-scale optimization problems, which arise in the management of operations at several decision levels. In this paper we firstly illustrate a recently proposed framework, called two-stage column ...
This paper empirically assesses the effect of liberalisation and competition on innovation in the postal sector. The analysis is restricted to end-to-end competition. The effect on the incentives to innovate of public ownership, letter volume, and other co ...
Postal incumbents in Europe have encountered during the last decade fundamental changes in their industry environment, which now threaten their very business model: governments decided to liberalise first the parcel market, then gradually the letter market ...
This paper presents a GIS-based decision support system for selecting least-cost bioenergy locations when there is a significant variability in biomass farmgate price and when more than one bioenergy plant with a fixed capacity has to be placed in the regi ...

We propose a new method for pricing options based on GARCH models with filtered historical innovations. In an incomplete market framework, we allow for different distributions of historical and pricing return dynamics enhancing the model flexibility to fit ...
Prior research into the link between new product development and market segmentation has focused on two main approaches: (1) design, segment, and do limited competitive evaluation; and (2) segment first, design second. This paper proposes a third approach, ...
