In this paper, we present a heuristic algorithm for solving exact, as well as approximate, shortest vector and closest vector problems on lattices. The algorithm can be seen as a modified sieving algorithm for which the vectors of the intermediate sets lie ...
Designing genetic networks with desired functionalities requires an accurate mathematical framework that accounts for the essential mechanistic details of the system. Here, we formulate a time-delay model of protein translation and mRNA degradation by syst ...
Global warming is expected to intensify the hydrologic cycle. Documenting whether significant changes in the extreme precipitation regimes have already happened is consequently one of the challenging topics in climatic research. The high natural variabilit ...
We heuristically solve an evacuation problem with limited capacity shelters. An evolutionary learning algorithm is developed for the combined route- and shelter-assignment problem. It is complemented with a heuristic method for the fair minimization of she ...
In message-passing parallel applications, messages are not delivered in a strict order. The number of messages, their content and their destination may depend on the ordering of their delivery. Nevertheless, for most applications, the computation results s ...
