Mathematical Optimization of Treatment Schedules [PDF]
International Journal of Radiation Oncology*Biology*Physics, 2016 In the past decades mathematical optimization has found its way into radiation therapy and has made profound practice changing impact. Today, virtually all advanced treatment delivery methods, such as IMRT, VMAT, tomotherapy, LDR/HDR brachytherapy, proton therapy, are based on some form of optimization approach that changes the treatment variables ...

Optimal deadline scheduling with commitment [PDF]
2011 49th Annual Allerton Conference on Communication, Control, and Computing (Allerton), 2011 We consider an online preemptive scheduling problem where jobs with deadlines arrive sporadically. A commitment requirement is imposed such that the scheduler has to either accept or decline a job immediately upon arrival. The scheduler's decision to accept an arriving job constitutes a contract with the customer; if the accepted job is not completed ...

Journal of Artificial Intelligence Research, 2017 We consider the torpedo scheduling problem in steel production, which is concerned with the transport of hot metal from a blast furnace to an oxygen converter. A schedule must satisfy, amongst other considerations, resource capacity constraints along the path and the locations traversed as well as the sulfur level of the hot metal.
