Our recently developed Reverse Priority (RP) redundancy resolution method is extended here to the presence of unilateral constraints. The RP method computes the solution to a stack of prioritized tasks starting from the lowest priority one, and adding iteratively the contributions of higher...

In this paper, we deal with matrix-free preconditioners for nonlinear conjugate gradient (NCG) methods. In particular, we review proposals based on quasi-Newton updates, and either satisfying the secant equation or a secant-like equation at some of the previous iterates. Conditions are given...

Hospitals have been challenged in recent years to deliver high quality care with limited resources. Given the pressure to contain costs,developing procedures for optimal resource allocation becomes more and more critical in this context. Indeed, under/overutilization of emergency room and ward...
