In recent years, a new additive manufacturing technology Melt Electrowriting (MEW) has become attractive, especially for biomedical applications, and it has potential in many other fields as well. In order to carry out an in-depth study of melt electrowrit ...
This paper examines the minimization of the cost for an expected random production output, given an assembly of finished goods from two random inputs, matched in two categories. We describe the optimal input portfolio, first using the standard normal appro ...
Weighted flow time is a fundamental and very well-studied objective function in scheduling. In this paper, we study the setting of a single machine with preemptions. The input consists of a set of jobs, characterized by their processing times, release time ...
In the transition to a sustainable energy system, energy communities have unique advantages; they require no additional land and allow inhabitants to reduce their energy bills. Nowadays, each shareholder’s profit is calculated based on their share of inves ...
In this thesis, we give new approximation algorithms for some NP-hard problems arising in resource allocation and network design. As a resource allocation problem, we study the Santa Claus problem (also known as the MaxMin Fair Allocation problem) in which ...
Lignocellulosic biomass is a potential renewable resource for production of high-value, sustainable products. Furfural is among the important bio-based chemicals in biorefineries. However, the conventional process of furfural production using a reaction-se ...
Coverage-guided greybox fuzzers rely on control-flow coverage feedback to explore a target program and uncover bugs. Compared to control-flow coverage, data-flow coverage offers a more fine-grained approximation of program behavior. Data-flow coverage capt ...
Lensless imaging can provide visual privacy due to the highly multiplexed characteristic of its measurements. However, this alone is a weak form of security, as various adversarial attacks can be designed to invert the one-to-many scene mapping of such cam ...
Years of globalization, outsourcing and cost cutting have increased supply chain vulnerability calling for more effective risk mitigation strategies. In our research, we analyze supply chain disruptions in a production setting. Using a bilevel optimization ...
paper studies exploiting action-level learning (imitation) in the optimal control problem context. Cost functions defined by the optimal control methods are similar to the goal-level learning (emulation) in animals. However, imitating the robot's or others ...
