    • Jackson de Castro, Canek; Pascual Jiménez, Rodrigo (ELSEVIER, 2008-09-01)
      In recent years, there has been a growing trend to out-source service operations in which the equipment maintenance is carried out by an external agent rather than in-house. Often, the agent (service provider) offers more ...
    • Hoeksma, Ruben; Uetz, Marc (Informs, 2016)
      We study the design of mechanisms for a sequencing problem where the types of job-agents consist of processing times and waiting costs that are private to the jobs. In the Bayes-Nash setting, we seek to find a sequencing ...
    • Inga, Esteban; Campaña, Miguel; Hincapié, Roberto; Céspedes, Sandra (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2018)
      This paper presents a heuristic model that optimally deploys the resources used to obtain a metropolitan and neighborhood area network with connectivity between the central office of an electricity company and the integrated ...
    • Barbay, Jérémy (MDPI, 2020)
      We describe an algorithm computing an optimal prefix free code for n unsorted positive weights in time within O(n(1+lg alpha))subset of O(nlgn), where the alternation alpha is an element of[1..n-1] approximates the minimal ...
    • Jara Díaz, Sergio; Cruz Padilla, Diego; Casanova Morales, César (Elsevier, 2016)
      Travelcards are used in many parts of the developed world as a form of payment for public transport that is convenient for frequent users. In essence it involves a one-time payment T at the beginning of a period that covers ...
    • Barrientos Foncea, Benjamín Andre (Universidad de Chile, 2022)
      En este trabajo se estudian tres problemas. Primero, se resuelve el problema de un vendedor dotado de infinitas unidades de cierto producto homogéneo para la venta en un horizonte finito y discreto con el fin de maximizar ...
    • Kaddoura, Ihab; Kickhöfer, Benjamin; Neumann, Andreas; Tirachini Hernández, Alejandro (Univ. Bath., 2015)
      In this paper, marginal cost-pricing rules are applied to an agent-based model. User-specific optimal bus fares are estimated by simulating user interactions at a microscopic level. We consider external effects of prolonged ...
    • Ortega Palma, Jaime; Pascual Jiménez, Rodrigo (ELSEVIER, 2006-02)
      In this article, we develop a model to help a maintenance decision making situation of a given equipment. We propose a novel model to determine optimal life-cycle duration and intervals between overhauls by minimizing ...
    • Díaz Balteiro, Luis; Martell, David L.; Romero, Carlos; Weintraub Pohorille, Andrés (Springer Science+Business Media, 2014)
      This paper proposes a multi-criteria approach that accounts for the risk of fire when determining the optimal rotation of a forest stand that is being managed for both timber production and carbon sequestration purposes. ...
    • Córdova Huenupil, Felipe Ignacio Alejandro (Universidad de Chile, 2021)
      La inferencia de parámetros orbitales para sistemas binarios es extremadamente importante para el estudio evolutivo del universo, puesto que dichos parámetros orbitales permiten inferir las masas individuales de los ...
    • Bustos Cárdenas, Benjamín; Morales, Nelson (2007)
      A recent trend to improve the effectiveness of similarity queries in multimedia databases is based on dynamic combinations of metric spaces. The efficiency issue when using these dynamic combinations is still an open ...
    • Dalphin, Jeremy; Barros, Ricardo (Springer New York LLC, 2019)
      © 2018, Springer Science+Business Media, LLC, part of Springer Nature.It is well known since Wu and Wu (in: Proceedings of the 14th symposium on naval hydrodynamics, National Academy Press, Washington, pp 103–125, 1982) ...
    • López Muñoz, Ignacio Francisco (Universidad de Chile, 2016)
      Actualmente existen diversos problemas medioambientales, dos de ellos corresponden a la futura crisis energética, debido al agotamiento de los combustibles fósiles, y a la existencia de aguas residuales con altas concentraciones ...
    • Foncea Araneda, Patricio Tomás (Universidad de Chile, 2017)
      En este trabajo estudiamos un par de problemas de la teoría de paradas óptimas, y mostramos cómo aplicar estos resultados en el diseño de mecanismos. Consideramos dos versiones modificadas de la famosa desigualdad del ...
    • Lasluisa, Daniel; Barrios, Edwin; Vasilieva, Olga (MDPI AG, 2019)
      In this paper, we report an application for the mathematical theory of dynamic optimization for design of optimal strategies that account for daily commuting of human residents, aiming to reduce vector-borne infections ...
    • Salcedo-Sanz, Sancho; Portilla-Figueras, José A.; Ortiz-García, Emilio G.; Pérez-Bellido, Angel M.; Thraves, Christopher; Fernández-Anta, Antonio; Yao, Xin (ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008-09)
      The optimal positioning of switches in a mobile communication network is an important task, which can save costs and improve the performance of the network. In this paper we propose a model for establishing which are the ...
    • Mora Castro, Andrés Felipe (Universidad de Chile, 2019)
      En este proyecto de tesis, se propone una estrategia de control predictivo (MPC, por sus siglas en inglés) basada en el concepto de secuencia de conmutación óptima (OSS) recientemente introducido para convertidores de punto ...
    • González Venegas, Felipe Héctor Nicolás (Universidad de Chile, 2016)
      Importar gas natural licuado (GNL) a través de contratos Take-or-Pay (ToP) para la generación de electricidad en sistemas hidrotérmicos es una tarea compleja ya que la demanda de gas es altamente incierta dada la variabilidad ...
    • Espinosa, Sebastian; Silva, Jorge; Mendez, Rene; Lobos, Rodrigo; Orchard Concha, Marcos (EDP Sciences, 2018)
      Context. Astrometry relies on the precise measurement of positions and motions of celestial objects. Driven by the ever-increasing accuracy of astrometric measurements, it is important to critically assess the maximum ...
