Process integration for emerging challenges: optimal allocation of antivirals under resource constraints

Adaptive resource allocation for synthetic aperture radars under resource constraints

In along-track synthetic aperture radar systems, measurements from multiple phase centers can be used to remove bright stationary clutter in order to detect and estimate moving targets in the scene. The effectiveness of this procedure can be improved by increasing the number of antennas in the system. However, due to computational and communication constraints, it may be prohibitive to use a la...

Optimal Bit Allocation Under Multiple Rate Constraints

An architecture for workflow scheduling under resource allocation constraints

Research on specification and scheduling of workflows has concentrated on temporal and causality constraints, which specify existence and order dependencies among tasks. However, another set of constraints that specify resource allocation is also equally important. The resources in a workflow environment are agents such as person, machine, software, etc. that execute the task. Execution of a ta...

A Logical Framework for Scheduling Workflows under Resource Allocation Constraints

A workflow consists of a collection of coordinated tasks designed to carry out a welldefined complex process, such as catalog ordering, trip planning, or a business process in an enterprise. Scheduling of workflows is a problem of finding a correct execution sequence for the workflow tasks, i.e., execution that obeys the constraints that embody the business logic of the workflow. Research on wo...

Optimal Resource Allocation for the Quality Control Process

Software development project employs some Quality Control (QC) process to detect and remove defects. The final quality of the delivered software depends on the effort spent on all the QC stages. Given a quality goal, different combinations of efforts for the different QC stages may lead to the same goal. In this paper we address the problem of allocating resources to the different QC stages, su...
