Mapping seafloor geomorphology is a complex task requiring the integration of advanced cartographic technologies and high-resolution spatial data. This paper provides a comparative geomorphological analysis of the Hellenic Trench (HT) and the Pliny Trench (PT) located in the Eastern...

In the classical Harris-Wilson (1915) inventory model all the cost associated with the formula was taken to be constant and which also does not depend on any quantity. There are many practical situations where this is not true. This paper considers an inventory model where the carrying cost...

Since ethical concerns are calling for more attention within Operational Research, we present three approaches to combine Operational Research models with ethics. Our intention is to clarify the trade-offs faced by the OR community, in particular the tension between the scientific legitimacy of...

We build spaces of q.p. (quasi-periodic) functions and we establich some of their properties. They are motivated by the Perceival approach to q.p. solutions of Hamiltonian systems. The periodic solutions of an adequat Partial Differential Equation are related to the q.p. solutions of an Ordinar...

In the first part of this paper we prove that the global quadratic optimization problem over a simplex can be solved with a constant relative accuracy. In the second part we consider some natural extensions of the result.

This paper presents a combinatorial polynomial-time algorithm for minimizing submodular set functions. The algorithm employs a scaling scheme that uses a flow in the complete directed graph on the underlying set with each arc capacity equal to the scaled parameter.

We present a representation of fuzzy numbers and its application to the numerical solution of fuzzy differential (initial value) equations (FDE).

In the present paper we introduce and study a generalization of the Hukuhara differ- ence and also generalizations of the Hukuhara differentiability to the case of interval valued functions. We consider several possible definitions for the derivative of an interval valued function and we study...
