This paper considers a stochastic shortest path problem where the arc lengths are independent random variables following a normal distribution. In this problem, the optimal path is one that maximizes ...

In the study of production scheduling to meet random fluctuations in supply and demand, a probabilistic measure of effectiveness can be used. This measure is a piecewise quadratic positive definite ...

This is the second post (here’s the first one) about an approach to introducing the derivative to calculus students that is counter to what I’ve seen in textbooks and other traditional treatments of ...
