CRITICAL PARAMETER MANAGEMENT

by Don Clausing, Dan Frey
"... Early in the systems engineering process many decisions are made. When these decisions are made well, they strongly contribute to success, but only if they are carried through in detailed design and transition to production. It is therefore necessary to work out the implications of the critical earl ..."

early decisions on myriad detailed decisions. Critical Parameter Management (CPM) is an engineering practice specifically aimed at maintaining the robustness of the system through detailed design and manufacturing. In the early development, ideally during technology development, the critical parameters

Where the REALLY Hard Problems Are

by Peter Cheeseman, Bob Kanefsky, William M. Taylor - IN J. MYLOPOULOS AND R. REITER (EDS.), PROCEEDINGS OF 12TH INTERNATIONAL JOINT CONFERENCE ON AI (IJCAI-91),VOLUME 1 , 1991
"... It is well known that for many NP-complete problems, such as K-Sat, etc., typical cases are easy to solve; so that computationally hard cases must be rare (assuming P != NP). This paper shows that NP-complete problems can be summarized by at least one "order parameter", and that the hard p ..."

problems occur at a critical value of such a parameter. This critical value separates two regions of characteristically different properties. For example, for K-colorability, the critical value separates overconstrained from underconstrained random graphs, and it marks the value at which the probability

Answering the Skeptics: Yes, Standard Volatility Models Do Provide Accurate Forecasts

by Torben G. Andersen, Tim Bollerslev
"... Volatility permeates modern financial theories and decision making processes. As such, accurate measures and good forecasts of future volatility are critical for the implementation and evaluation of asset and derivative pricing theories as well as trading and hedging strategies. In response to this, ..."

LogP: Towards a Realistic Model of Parallel Computation

by David Culler , Richard Karp , David Patterson, Abhijit Sahay, Klaus Erik Schauser, Eunice Santos, Ramesh Subramonian, Thorsten von Eicken , 1993
"... A vast body of theoretical research has focused either on overly simplistic models of parallel computation, notably the PRAM, or overly specific models that have few representatives in the real world. Both kinds of models encourage exploitation of formal loopholes, rather than rewarding developme ..."
Abstract - Cited by 560 (15 self) - Add to MetaCart
development of techniques that yield performance across a range of current and future parallel machines. This paper offers a new parallel machine model, called LogP, that reflects the critical technology trends underlying parallel computers. It is intended to serve as a basis for developing fast, portable

A Fast Elitist Non-Dominated Sorting Genetic Algorithm for Multi-Objective Optimization: NSGA-II

by Kalyanmoy Deb, Samir Agrawal, Amrit Pratap, T Meyarivan , 2000
"... Multi-objective evolutionary algorithms which use non-dominated sorting and sharing have been mainly criticized for their (i) -4 computational complexity (where is the number of objectives and is the population size), (ii) non-elitism approach, and (iii) the need for specifying a sharing ..."

Approximating critical parameters of branching random walks

by Daniela Bertacchi, Fabio Zucca
"... Abstract. Given a branching random walk on a graph, we consider two kinds of truncations: either by inhibiting the reproduction outside a subset of vertices or by allowing at most m particles per vertex. We investigate the convergence of weak and strong critical parameters of these truncated branchi ..."
