Network design problems concern the selection of arcs in a graph in order to satisfy, at
minimum cost, some flow requirements, usually expressed in the form of origin–destination …

The multiple allocation hub-and-spoke network design under hub congestion problem is
addressed in this paper. A non-linear mixed integer programming formulation is proposed …

This paper concentrates on the mean-standard deviation shortest path problem, which is an
important extension of traditional shortest path problem. Due to the standard deviation term …

This work addresses the hub location problem with price-sensitive demands. The article
analyzes sensitivity of demand to quality of service in such systems, and enables the …

Hybrid switching—in which a high bandwidth circuit switch (optical or wireless) is used in
conjunction with a low bandwidth packet switch—is a promising alternative to interconnect …

Probability constraints play a key role in optimization problems involving uncertainties.
These constraints request that an inequality system depending on a random vector has to be …

Thermal system optimization is critical for energy conservation but challenging due to highly
complicated systems and nonlinear governing equations. Herein, an efficient yet accurate …

This paper studies a version of the fixed-charge multicommodity network design problem
where in addition to the traditional costs of flow and design, congestion at nodes is explicitly …

In this paper, multihop device-to-device (D2D) communications for cell coverage extension
are studied. An in-band underlay D2D mode is considered, and the aim is to satisfy the …

The need to adapt to the demands of global supply chains in real-time is of significant
importance to the future success of continuous process industries. Amongst such business …
