We define a new type of Golomb ruler, which we term a resolvable Golomb ruler. These are Golomb rulers that satisfy an additional "resolvability" condition that allows them to generate resolvable symmetric configurations. The resulting…
This is a short tutorial about different software design methodologies.
Resolvable combinatorial designs including Resolvable Balanced Incomplete Block Designs, Resolvable Group Divisible Designs, Uniformly Resolvable Designs and Mutually Orthogonal Latin Squares and Rectangles are used to construct optimal…
The recommendation of food items is important for many reasons. Attaining cooking inspiration via digital sources is becoming evermore popular; as are systems, which recommend other types of food, such as meals in restaurants or products in…
The design of embedded systems, that are ubiquitously used in mobile devices and cars, is becoming continuously more complex such that efficient system-level design methods are becoming crucial. My research aims at developing systems that…
The paper describes multistage design of composite (modular) systems (i.e., design of a system trajectory). This design process consists of the following: (i) definition of a set of time/logical points; (ii) modular design of the system for…
In this paper we present the report on the design and development of a platform for the inter-generational exchange of favors. This platform was designed using participatory design approach during a 24-hour hackathon by a team consisting of…
The problem of enumerating meanders -- pairs of simple plane curves with transverse intersections -- was formulated about forty years ago and is still far from solved. Recently, it was discovered that meanders admit a factorization into…
Unravelling current complex food systems is relevant for their adjustment and redesign under the current changing climate conditions. Redesign may be necessitated by migration of people and changes of locations of major agri-food…
We generalise the existence of combinatorial designs to the setting of subset sums in lattices with coordinates indexed by labelled faces of simplicial complexes. This general framework includes the problem of decomposing hypergraphs with…
Everyone eats. However, people do not always know what to eat. They need a little help and inspiration. Consequently, a number of apps, services, and programs have developed recommenders around food. These cover food, meal, recipe, and…
Restaurant meal delivery has been rapidly growing in the last few years. The main challenges in operating it are the temporally and spatially dispersed stochastic demand that arrives from customers all over town as well as the customers'…
This article presents a new proposal design of GUI and new technology in programming Namely "Super Technology" which can be applied for supporting the proposal design of GUI
A popular approach in combinatorial optimization is to model problems as integer linear programs. Ideally, the relaxed linear program would have only integer solutions, which happens for instance when the constraint matrix is totally…
The emerging topic of sequential recommender systems has attracted increasing attention in recent years.Different from the conventional recommender systems including collaborative filtering and content-based filtering, SRSs try to…
Seriation methods order a set of descriptions given some criterion (e.g., unimodality or minimum distance between similarity scores). Seriation is thus inherently a problem of finding the optimal solution among a set of permutations of…
Meals are a central (and messy) part of family life. Previous design framings for mealtime technologies have focused on supporting dietary needs or social and celebratory interactions at the dinner table; however, family meals involve the…
We describe a class of combinatorial design problems which typically occur in professional sailing league competitions. We discuss connections to resolvable block designs and equitable coverings and to scheduling problems in operations…
Solutions to decentralized discrete-event systems problems are characterized by the way local decisions are fused to yield a global decision. A fusion rule is colloquially called an architecture. Current approaches do not provide a direct…
Developments in the poultry processing industry, such as how livestock is raised and how consumers buy meat, make it increasingly difficult to design poultry processing systems that meet evolving standards. More and more iterations of…
