In typical applications of facility location problems, the location of demand is assumed to be an input to the problem. The demand may be fixed or dynamic, but ultimately outside the optimizers control. In contrast, there are settings,…

Coflow is a network abstraction used to represent communication patterns in data centers. The coflow scheduling problem encountered in large data centers is a challenging $\mathcal{NP}$-hard problem. This paper tackles the scheduling…

It is shown that a large class of communication systems which admit a sum-product algorithm (SPA) based receiver also admit a corresponding linear-programming (LP) based receiver. The two receivers have a relationship defined by the local…

Securing petroleum infrastructure requires balancing autonomous system efficiency with human judgment for threat escalation, a challenge unaddressed by classical facility location models assuming homogeneous resources. This paper formulates…

Multi-die FPGAs are crucial components in modern computing systems, particularly for high-performance applications such as artificial intelligence and data centers. Super long lines (SLLs) provide interconnections between super logic…

We consider the facility location problem in the one-dimensional setting where each facility can serve a limited number of agents from the algorithmic and mechanism design perspectives. From the algorithmic perspective, we prove that the…

This paper is focused on the design of phase sequences with good (aperiodic) autocorrelation properties in terms of Peak Sidelobe Level (PSL) and Integrated Sidelobe Level (ISL). The problem is formulated as a bi-objective Pareto…

In this paper we discuss a sequential algorithm for the computation of a minimum-time speed profile over a given path, under velocity, acceleration and jerk constraints. Such a problem arises in industrial contexts such as automated…

With the rapid growth of threats, sophistication and diversity in the manner of intrusion, traditional belt barrier systems are now faced with a major challenge of providing high and concrete coverage quality to expand the guarding service…

Linear programming has played a key role in the study of algorithms for combinatorial optimization problems. In the field of approximation algorithms, this is well illustrated by the uncapacitated facility location problem. A variety of…

This paper addresses the scheduling problem of coflows in identical parallel networks, which is a well-known $NP$-hard problem. Coflow is a relatively new network abstraction used to characterize communication patterns in data centers. We…

We formulate and analyze a generic sequential resource access problem arising in a variety of engineering fields, where a user disposes a number of heterogeneous computing, communication, or storage resources, each characterized by the…

We give sublinear-time approximation algorithms for some optimization problems arising in machine learning, such as training linear classifiers and finding minimum enclosing balls. Our algorithms can be extended to some kernelized versions…

Many engineered systems, such as energy and transportation infrastructures, are networks governed by non-linear physical laws. A primary challenge for operators of these networks is to achieve optimal utilization while maintaining safety…

This paper introduces a new hierarchical facility location model with three levels: first-level facilities which manufacture different products, second-level facilities which act as warehouses and a third-level consisting of the clients who…

The classical Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP) focuses on optimizing makespan under deterministic constraints. Real-world production environments introduce additional complexities that cause traditional scheduling approaches to be less…

Extending the context length (i.e., the maximum supported sequence length) of LLMs is of paramount significance. To facilitate long context training of LLMs, sequence parallelism has emerged as an essential technique, which scatters each…

Metric facility location and $K$-means are well-known problems of combinatorial optimization. Both admit a fairly simple heuristic called single-swap, which adds, drops or swaps open facilities until it reaches a local optimum. For both…

This paper concerns with the sensor management problem in collocated Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) radars. After deriving the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) as a performance measure, the antenna allocation problem is formulated as a…

We propose a novel hierarchical reinforcement learning framework for quadruped locomotion over challenging terrain. Our approach incorporates a two-layer hierarchy in which a high-level policy (HLP) selects optimal goals for a low-level…
