A Compromise Decision-making Model for Multi-objective Large-scale Programming Problems with a Block Angular Structure under Uncertainty

This paper proposes a compromise model, based on the technique for order preference through similarity ideal solution (TOPSIS) methodology, to solve the multi-objective large-scale linear programming (MOLSLP) problems with block angular structure involving fuzzy parameters. The problem involves fuzzy parameters in the objective functions and constraints. This compromise programming method is ba...

Resource Assignment for Large-Scale Computing Utilities using Mathematical Programming

In this paper, we describe a resource assignment problem (RAP) for a large-scale computing utility, such as an Internet data center. The problem is defined as follows: For a given topology of a network consisting of switches and servers with varying capabilities, and for a given application with a distributed architecture, decide which server from the physical network should be assigned to each...

Large scale agent interactions : mathematical modelling and simulation

The world that we live in is filled with large scale agent systems from diverse fields such as biology, ecology or finance. Inspired by the desire to better understand and make the best use of these systems, we discuss simulation tools and present novel stochastic mathematical models based on queueing networks. Our aim is to provide insight into agent systems in terms of their performance and b...

A Practical Desalinization Model for Large Scale Application

Salinity of soil and water is the most important agricultural hazard in arid and semi-aridregions. In saline soils, yield production directly influences by soluble salts in the root zone aswell as by shallow water table depth. The first step for reclamation of such soils is reducingsalinity to optimum level by leaching. The objective of this study was to develop a practicalmodel to estimate wat...
