We introduce a novel approach to solving dynamic programming problems, such as those in many economic models, on a quantum annealer, a specialized device that performs combinatorial optimization.

This paper considers a minimum-cost network flow problem in a bipartite graph with a single sink. The transportation costs exhibit a staircase cost structure because such types of transportation cost ...

We consider a broad class of stochastic dynamic programming problems that are amenable to relaxation via decomposition. These problems comprise multiple subproblems that are independent of each other ...

Find out how today's engineers succeed by growing their technical abilities, improving how they communicate, and staying open ...

The other day in the Linux Journal IRC room (#linuxjournal on Freenode), I was whining to the channel about no-ip.com deleting my account without warning. My home IP address hadn't changed in a couple ...
