This paper addresses two variants of the routing and wavelength assignment problem arising in the context of optical transport networks. In both variants, we address the case where the physical coverage of the fiber network is such that regenerators, to ...

Relative Robust Portfolio Optimization [PDF]
Considering mean-variance portfolio problems with uncertain model parameters, we contrast the classical absolute robust optimization approach with the relative robust approach based on a maximum regret function.

Core group placement: allocation and provisioning of heterogeneous resources
We present a theoretical and empirical study on a recently introduced combinatorial optimization problem, namely core group placement problem. The problem arises from real-world business requirements as part of resource allocation in cloud management. In

Stabilized Benders methods for large-scale combinatorial optimization, with appllication to data privacy [PDF]
The Cell Suppression Problem (CSP) is a challenging Mixed-Integer Linear Problem arising in statistical tabular data protection. Medium sized instances of CSP involve thousands of binary variables and million of continuous variables and constraints ...

A Two-Level Approach to Large Mixed-Integer Programs with Application to Cogeneration in Energy-Efficient Buildings [PDF]
We study a two-stage mixed-integer linear program (MILP) with more than 1 million binary variables in the second stage. We develop a two-level approach by constructing a semi-coarse model (coarsened with respect to variables) and a coarse model ...

Combining stochastic programming and optimal control to solve multistage stochastic optimization problems [PDF]
In this contribution we propose an approach to solve a multistage stochastic programming problem which allows us to obtain a time and nodal decomposition of the original problem.

Tracking error with minimum guarantee constraints [PDF]
In recent years the popularity of indexing has greatly increased in financial markets and many different families of products have been introduced. Often these products also have a minimum guarantee in the form of a minimum rate of return at specified ...
