On merging sequencing and scheduling theory with genetic algorithms to solve stochastic job shops.
(1997)The stochastic job shop problem was solved using two genetic algorithms. The first was a stochastic constrained genetic algorithm to minimize total tardiness and to evaluate chromosomes using probability Gantt charting. ... -
ON MULTIMEDIA CONTENT DELIVERY AND MULTICASTING
(2012)Multimedia content now contribute to a huge amount of the Internet traffic due to the popularity and availability of anytime anywhere Internet connection. Unlike the circuit-switched telephone network - in which necessary ... -
On some relations between canonical correlation, multiple regression, and factor analysis /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1967) -
On spiral or flat elliptical galaxies as gravitational lenses /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1972) -
"On Steady Advance..." An Investigation Into The Rhetorical Intent of The Testament of Freedom by Randall Thompson
(2023-12-15)This document will investigate the events and circumstances that shaped the music and message of Randall Thompson’s The Testament of Freedom. Evidence uncovered in this investigation will provide a more complete historical ... -
On the Complexity of Tipping in Super-Modular Games
(2014-05)The problem of finding the minimum tipping set in a super modular game is known to be NP-hard. Here, I derive an approximation algorithm to find a small tipping set in such a game. In the special case of the uniform game, ... -
On the Existence and Stability of Filiform Nilsolitons
(2022-08)This dissertation is concerned with the existence and stability of nilsoliton metrics on filiform Lie algebras. The results are presented in two major components. First, we give new results which preclude the existence of ... -
ON THE EXISTENCE OF KAM TORI FOR PRESYMPLECTIC VECTOR FIELDS
(2016-05)We prove the existence of a torus that is invariant with respect to the flow of a presymplectic vector field found in a family of presymplectic vector fields. Moreover, the flow on this invariant torus is conjugate to a ... -
On the extraction and formation of native auxins in plants /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1956) -
On the formation of vertical vortices in the atmosphere.
(1999)This dissertation reports on two semi-independent studies of rotating atmospheric convection. The first is an analytical investigation of the linear stability and structure of convection in a mean circular shear. The study ... -
ON THE FURTHER STUDIES OF SUITABLE STORM-SCALE 3DVAR DATA ASSIMILATION FOR THE PREDICTION OF TORNADIC THUNDERSTORMS
(2011)Storm-scale 3DVAR data assimilation and NWP for the prediction of tornadic supercell thunderstorms still faces many challenges. Some fundamental issues are still not thoroughly (or explicitly) investigated. To name a few: ... -
On the gravitational lensing of type Ia supernovae.
(2006)In this dissertation we concentrate on some of these effects on the observation of type Ia supernovae. -
On the interacting and noninteracting control of multivariable stochastic systems using feedforward-feedback controllers /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1971) -
On the Limitations of Discriminating Outbreaks of Severe Convection
(2010)Although much has been learned in recent decades regarding the synoptic and subsynoptic environments associated with major tornado outbreaks, very little research has been conducted using a large sample of outbreak cases ... -
On the Methodological and Normative Foundations of Probabilism
(2015-12-18)This dissertation is an elaboration and defense of probabilism, the view that belief comes in various degrees of strength, and that the probability calculus provides coherence norms for these degrees of belief. Probabilism ... -
ON THE MULTIFACETED COMPLEXITIES OF FAIR RESOURCE ALLOCATION PROBLEMS IN NETWORK SYSTEMS AND HOW TO ADDRESS THEM VIA MATHEMATICAL PROGRAMMING
(2024-08-02)The challenge of fair resource allocation within supply and demand network systems represents a critical issue in the realm of cyber-physical-social systems (CPSS). Addressing this problem is essential for enhancing societal ... -
On the normal accessibility property of actions in manifolds: Ramifications in pseudo semi-groups of local diffeomorphisms.
(2002)Note. Continuous-time systems only fit into action framework when using piecewise constant controls. If we want the action manifold to be second countable, the we must further restrict piecewise constant controls to take ... -
On the Potential of Adaptive Beamforming for Phased-Array Weather Radar
(2017-05-12)As the Weather Surveillance Radar 1988 Doppler network reaches the end of its expected life, a network of multifunction phased-array radars (MPAR) supporting both aircraft and weather surveillance missions has been proposed. ...
