To-be Modeling and Process Optimization
2003To-be modeling is based on the as-is models and on the issues that have been identified during the process analysis. The results of to-be modeling and of evaluated to-be processes are linked with company-internal expectations from management as well as from the employees.

Optimality Models in Behavioral Biology
SIAM Review, 2001Summary: The action of natural selection results in organisms that are good at surviving and reproducing. We show how this intuitive idea can be given a formal definition in terms of fitness and reproductive value. An optimal strategy maximizes fitness, and reproductive value provides a common currency for comparing different actions.

Statistical Performance Modeling and Optimization
Foundations and Trends® in Electronic Design Automation, 2007As IC technologies scale to finer feature sizes, it becomes increasingly difficult to control the relative process variations. The increasing fluctuations in manufacturing processes have introduced unavoidable and significant uncertainty in circuit performance; hence ensuring manufacturability has been identified as one of the top priorities of today’s

A Graphical Model for Evolutionary Optimization
Evolutionary Computation, 2008We present a statistical model of empirical optimization that admits the creation of algorithms with explicit and intuitively defined desiderata. Because No Free Lunch theorems dictate that no optimization algorithm can be considered more efficient than any other when considering all possible functions, the desired function class plays a prominent ...

How optimal is the Optimization Model?
Bilingualism: Language and Cognition, 2013Pieter Muysken's article on modeling and interpreting language contact phenomena constitutes an important contribution.The approach chosen is a top–down one, building on the author's extensive knowledge of all matters relating to language contact. The paper aims at integrating a wide range of factors and levels of social, cognitive, and linguistic ...

Modeling, Simulation, and Optimization of Electrowetting
IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems, 2006Electrowetting is an elegant method to realize the motion, dispensing, splitting, and mixing of single droplets in a microfluidic system without the need for any mechanical—and fault-prone—components. By only applying an electric voltage, the interfacial energy of the fluid–solid interface is altered and the contact line of the droplet is changed ...

Optimizations of Rough Set Model
Fundamenta Informaticae, 1998Rough set methodology is based on concept (set) approximations constructed from available background knowledge represented in information systems [14]. In many applications only partial knowledge about approximated concepts is given. Hence quite often first a parametrized family of concept approximations is built and next, by parameters tuning the best,

Modeling and Optimization of Cryopreservation
2014Modeling plays a critical role in understanding the biophysical processes behind cryopreservation. It facilitates understanding of the biophysical and some of the biochemical mechanisms of damage during all phases of cryopreservation including CPA equilibration, cooling, and warming.
