SCMC: An Efficient Scheme for Minimizing Energy in WSNs Using a Set Cover Approach
Future Internet, 2017 Energy-efficient clustering and routing are well known optimization problems in the study of Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) lifetime extension. In this paper, we propose an intelligent hybrid optimization algorithm based on a Set Cover approach to create ...

Risk Minimizing Strategies for Revenue Management Problems with Target Values [PDF]
, 2009 Consider a risk-averse decision maker in the setting of a single-leg dynamic revenue management problem. Instead on focusing on maximizing the expected revenue, the decision maker has the main objective of minimizing the risk of failing to achieve a ...

Convex Analysis for Minimizing and Learning Submodular Set Functions [PDF]
, 2013 The connections between convexity and submodularity are explored, for purposes of minimizing and learning submodular set functions. First, we develop a novel method for minimizing a particular class of submodular functions, which can be expressed as a

Comparative Analysis of Carbon Capture and Storage Finance Gaps and the Social Cost of Carbon
Energies, 2021 This paper evaluates how changes in economic market and policy conditions, including the establishment of a per-unit tax on unabated emissions of carbon dioxide (CO2) set equal to estimates of the social cost of carbon (SCC), influence the economics of ...

An axiomatization of minimal curb sets [PDF]
International Journal of Game Theory, 2005 The authors study set-valued solution concepts for finite strategic games, and in particular the concept of minimal curb sets. They show that it is the only concept satisfying the following 5 properties of nonemptiness, one-person rationality, consistency, nonnestedness and satisfaction.

Minimal Multiple Blocking Sets [PDF]
The Electronic Journal of Combinatorics, 2018 We prove that a minimal $t$-fold blocking set in a finite projective plane of order $n$ has cardinality at most \[\frac{1}{2} n\sqrt{4tn - (3t + 1)(t - 1)} + \frac{1}{2} (t - 1)n + t.\] This is the first general upper bound on the size of minimal $t$-fold blocking sets in finite projective planes and it generalizes the classical result of Bruen and ...

Minimal sets of visibility [PDF]
Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 1953 Let S be a set in an n-dimensional Euclidean space, En. The following concept was used by Horn and Valentine [21 in their study of L sets, and it provides the basis of this investigation. DEFINITION 1. A set VCS is a set of visibility in S if, given any point p ES, there exists a point qE V such that the closed segment pqCS. NOTATION. Given a point xES,

Selection of a set of earthmoving equipment in the aspect minimizing the emission of CO2
Budownictwo i Architektura, 2013 The aim of the calculation is to allow the selection of a set of earthmoving machinery in terms of minimizing the emission of CO2. The capacity of excavators and CO2 emission of set of machines was predicted.
