Abstract: This paper presents a new approach to fuel-optimal path planning of multiple vehicles using a combination of linear and integer programming. The basic problem formulation is to have the ...

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 ...

Abstract: This paper investigates the equivalence between a class of mixed-integer linear and linear programming prob-lems. By utilizing the addition of slack variables theorem, we demonstrate that ...
