This paper presents a synthesis of a framework of cooperative work directed towards creativity, innovation and decision-making. This framework is adapted to project management and integrates the concepts, methodologies and technologies, which aim at improv ...
In an industry project with a German car manufacturer we are faced with the challenge of placing a maximum number of uniform rigid rectangular boxes in the interior of a car trunk. The problem is of practical importance due to a European industry norm whic ...

When solving numerical constraints such as nonlinear equations and inequalities, solvers often exploit pruning techniques, which remove redundant value combinations from the domains of variables, at pruning steps. To find the complete solution set, most of ...
Increasing communication demands of processor and memory cores in Systems on Chips (SoCs) necessitate the use of Networks on Chip (NoC) to interconnect the cores. An important phase in the design of NoCs is the mapping of cores onto the most suitable topol ...
This paper describes the optimization of batch processes in the presence of uncertainty and constraints. The optimal solution consists of keeping certain path and terminal constraints active and driving the sensitivities to zero. The case where the termina ...
Universal Multimedia Access (UMA) refers to the ability to access by any user to the desired multimedia content(s) over any type of network with any device from anywhere and anytime. UMA is a key framework for multimedia content delivery service using meta ...
Finding the optimal solution of a Multi-Attribute Decision Problem (MADP) is a key problem for electronic commerce systems. In this paper, we formally define the multi-attribute decision problem, and we report our survey of four different methods (soft-CSP ...
For the refurbishment projects, one of the most important problems is to evaluate the economical efficiency of the project. It is difficult to estimate, with good accuracy, the hydraulic efficiency in situ for existing configurations and even more difficul ...
This paper presents a decomposition approach for a quite general class of mixed- integer dynamic optimization problems that is capable of guaranteeing the global solution despite the nonconvexities inherent to the dynamic optimization subproblems. A case s ...
