1992 journal article

A shifting bottleneck algorithm for scheduling semiconductor testing operations

Journal of Electronics Manufacturing, 02(03), 119–134.

By: I. Ovacik & R. Uzsoy*

TL;DR: This paper describes an implementation of two variants of a shifting bottleneck algorithm for scheduling semiconductor testing operations and shows that one of the shifting bottleneck algorithms performs significantly better than all the dispatching rules within reasonable computation times.

Deriving an unconstrained convex program for linear programming

Journal of Optimization Theory and Applications, 75(3), 603–612.

By: J. Rajasekera* & S. Fang n

On the optimal entropy analysis

European Journal of Operational Research, 59(2), 324–329.

By: H. Tsao*, S. Fang n & D. Lee*

author keywords: ENTROPY OPTIMIZATION; INFORMATION THEORY; GEOMETRIC PROGRAMMING; PROBABILITY INFERENCE
TL;DR: Jensen's inequality is used to derive a dual approach to solving linearly constrained entropy optimization problems with a countably infinite number of states and extends a Geometric Programming approach to the same problem with only a finite number ofStates. (via Semantic Scholar)

1992 journal article

Insights into the interior-point methods

Zeitschrift Für Operations Research, 36(3), 227–257.

By: R. Sheu n & S. Fang n

TL;DR: The derivation of new interior-point algorithms is illustrated by replacing the logarithmic barrier function with an entropic barrier function, and the results have been generalized and discussed. (via Semantic Scholar)

1992 journal article

An unconstrained convex programming view of linear programming

Zeitschrift Für Operations Research, 36(2), 149–161.

By: S. Fang n

TL;DR: It is shown that, at least in theory, a pair of primal and dual “ɛ-optimal solutions” to a general linear program in Karmarkar's standard form can be obtained by solving an unconstrained convex program. (via Semantic Scholar)

1992 journal article

Minimum cross-entropy analysis with entropy-type constraints

Journal of Computational and Applied Mathematics, 39(2), 165–178.

By: S. Fang n, E. Peterson n & J. Rajasekera*

author keywords: ENTROPY OPTIMIZATION; INFORMATION THEORY; GEOMETRIC PROGRAMMING; PROBABILITY INFERENCE
TL;DR: A simple geometric inequality is used to derive its dual problem and to show the “strong duality theorem”, and it is found this geometric dual is a computationally attractive canonical program that is always consistent. (via Semantic Scholar)
