In this dissertation, I develop a new theoretical framework for the modeling, pricing analysis, and computation of solutions to electric power supply chains with power generators, suppliers, transmission service providers, and the inclusion of consumer demands. In particular, I advocate the...

Several models in econometrics and finance have been proven to be computationally intractable due to their complexity. In this dissertation, we propose an evolutionary-genetic-algorithm for solving these types of problems. We extend the models so that less restrictive assumptions are required...

This Dissertation is a qualitative case study that examines transformative technical adaptations and organizational process changes in the context of a new product deployment in a large Telecommunications Corporation. The dissertation advances the existing body of knowledge and understanding of...

"This book discusses the computation intelligence approaches, initiatives and applications in the engineering, science and business fields, highlighting that computational intelligence as no longer limited to computing-related disciplines and can be applied to any effort which handles complex...
