Energy efficient resource allocation in heterogeneous software defined network: A reverse combinatorial auction approach
2015
In this paper, resource allocation for energy effi- ciency in heterogeneous Software Defined Network (SDN) with multiple network service providers (NSPs) is studied. The considered problem is modeled as a reverse combinatorial auction game, which takes different quality of service (QoS) requirements into account. The heterogeneous network selection associated with power allocation problem is optimized by maximizing the energy efficiency of data transmission. By exploiting the properties of fractional programming, the resulting non-convex Winner Determination Problem (WDP) is transformed into an equivalent subtractive convex optimization problem. The proposed reverse combinatorial auction ga…
Notes on Selected Genera of Shore Flies (Diptera: Ephydridae), with Removals to Drosophilidae, Heleomyzidae and Milichiidae
2022
The following new taxonomic changes in nine tribes of Ephydridae are proposed: status at species level: Ditrichophora amoena (Duda, 1942); 2 resurrections from synonymy: Ptilomyia madeirensis Stuke, 2012, bona species, and P. orsovana (Enderlein, 1922), bona species; 10 new combinations: Allotrichoma communis (Malloch, 1934), comb. nov., Athyroglossa bettelai (Canzoneri, 1995), comb. nov., Ceropsilopa africana (Canzoneri & Meneghini, 1969), comb. nov., Ceropsilopa flavescens (Frey, 1958), comb. nov., Diclasiopa affinis (Tonnoir & Malloch, 1926), comb. nov., Diclasiopa flavitarsis (Tonnoir & Malloch, 1926), comb. nov., Diclasiopa senegalensis (Canzoneri, 1981), comb. nov., Ditrichophora amoe…
A revision of the Old World species of Leptopsilopa Cresson (Insecta: Diptera: Ephydridae)
2016
Diagnoses and illustrations of three Leptopsilopa species known in the Old World: L. africana Cresson, L. mutabilis Cresson and L. pollinosa (Kertesz) are provided. Three new synonyms are proposed: L. aurata (Canzoneri and Meneghini) and L. tibialis (Canzoneri and Meneghini) = L. africana; Psilopa confeteae Canzoneri and Munari = L. pollinosa. Three other species are removed from Leptopsilopa and combined with Athyroglossa, as A. leonensis (Canzoneri and Rampini), new combination, A. mianii (Canzoneri) new combination and A. rossii (Canzoneri and Raffone), new combination.
Les stéréotypes nominaux et la combinatoire lexicale
2011
In this article, we are interested in the stereotypes associated with the names of substances and natural phenomena. We try to demonstrate, through their lexical combinatory, that the semantic representation of these names is constituted of the denotative meaning, built on the basis of a knowledge, and the stereotype, i.e. the conventional ideas on the appearance and the nature of the denoted objects.
On the CAT(0) dimension of 2-dimensional Bestvina-Brady groups
2002
Let K be a 2-dimensional finite flag complex. We study the CAT(0) dimension of the `Bestvina-Brady group', or `Artin kernel', Gamma_K. We show that Gamma_K has CAT(0) dimension 3 unless K admits a piecewise Euclidean metric of non-positive curvature. We give an example to show that this implication cannot be reversed. Different choices of K lead to examples where the CAT(0) dimension is 3, and either (i) the geometric dimension is 2, or (ii) the cohomological dimension is 2 and the geometric dimension is not known.

Models and algorithms for berth allocation problems in port terminals
2017
Seaports play a key role in maritime commerce and the global market economy. Goods of different kinds are carried in specialized vessels whose handling requires ad hoc port facilities. Port terminals comprise the quays, infrastructures, and services dedicated to handling the inbound and outbound cargo carried on vessels. Increasing seaborne trade and ever-greater competition between port terminals to attract more traffic have prompted new studies aimed at improving their quality of service while reducing costs. Most terminals implement operational planning to achieve more efficient usage of resources, and this poses new combinatorial optimization problems which have attracted increasing att…
Extremal Irregular Digraphs
2018
A digraph is called irregular if its distinct vertices have distinct degree pairs. An irregular digraph is called minimal (maximal) if the removal of any arc (addition of any new arc) results in a non-irregular digraph. It is easily seen that the minimum sizes among irregular n-vertex whether digraphs or oriented graphs are the same and are asymptotic to (√2/3) n3/2; maximum sizes, however, are asymptotic to n2 and n2/2, respectively. Let s stand for the sum of initial positive integers, s = 1, 3, 6, . . . . An oriented graph Hs and a digraph Fs, both large (in terms of the size), minimal irregular, and on any such s vertices, s ≥ 21, are constructed in [Large minimal irregular digraphs, Op…
Intrinsic Lipschitz Graphs and Vertical β-Numbers in the Heisenberg Group
2016
The purpose of this paper is to introduce and study some basic concepts of quantitative rectifiability in the first Heisenberg group $\mathbb{H}$. In particular, we aim to demonstrate that new phenomena arise compared to the Euclidean theory, founded by G. David and S. Semmes in the 90's. The theory in $\mathbb{H}$ has an apparent connection to certain nonlinear PDEs, which do not play a role with similar questions in $\mathbb{R}^{3}$. Our main object of study are the intrinsic Lipschitz graphs in $\mathbb{H}$, introduced by B. Franchi, R. Serapioni and F. Serra Cassano in 2006. We claim that these $3$-dimensional sets in $\mathbb{H}$, if any, deserve to be called quantitatively $3$-rectifi…
An evolutionary Haar-Rado type theorem
2021
AbstractIn this paper, we study variational solutions to parabolic equations of the type $$\partial _t u - \mathrm {div}_x (D_\xi f(Du)) + D_ug(x,u) = 0$$ ∂ t u - div x ( D ξ f ( D u ) ) + D u g ( x , u ) = 0 , where u attains time-independent boundary values $$u_0$$ u 0 on the parabolic boundary and f, g fulfill convexity assumptions. We establish a Haar-Rado type theorem: If the boundary values $$u_0$$ u 0 admit a modulus of continuity $$\omega $$ ω and the estimate $$|u(x,t)-u_0(\gamma )| \le \omega (|x-\gamma |)$$ | u ( x , t ) - u 0 ( γ ) | ≤ ω ( | x - γ | ) holds, then u admits the same modulus of continuity in the spatial variable.
