摘要：We consider a scenario in which a single Red wishes to shoot at a collection of Blue targets, one at a time, to maximise some measure of return obtained from Blues killed before Red's own (possible) demise. Such a situation arises in various military contexts, such as the conduct of air defence by Red in the face of Blue SEAD (suppression of enemy air defences). A class of decision processes called multiarmed bandits has been previously deployed to develop optimal policies for Red, in which sh...

摘要：We consider the problem of locating a spherical circle with respect to existing facilities on a sphere, such that the sum of distances between the circle and the facilities is minimized or such that the maximum distance is minimized. The problem properties are analyzed, and we give solution procedures. When the circle to be located is restricted to be a great circle, some simplifications are possible. The models may be used in preliminary studies on the location of large linear facilities on t...

摘要：This technical note presents a screening technique for using chance-constrained programming to achieve overall system (i.e., joint) reliability when there is statistical dependence between constraints representing an ambient air-quality requirement at different geographical locations. The technique is intended to determine whether the full analysis of row interdependence, which requires more intensive programming and larger computational effort, is warranted, by examining a possible spectrum o...
