Inverse optimisation and linear programming have emerged as crucial instruments in addressing complex decision-making problems where underlying models must be inferred from observed behaviour. At its ...

Abstract: This paper presents a new mixed-integer linear formulation for the unit commitment problem of thermal units. The formulation proposed requires fewer binary variables and constraints than ...

This paper proposes a framework for benchmarking the new product development process of individual companies. The company’s ...

Software engineering is the branch of computer science that deals with the design, development, testing, and maintenance of software applications. Software engineers apply engineering principles and ...

Abstract: Characterization of entropy functions is of fundamental importance in information theory. By imposing constraints on their Shannon outer bound, i.e., the polymatroidal region, one obtains ...
