Cellular dynamics are intrinsically noisy, so mechanistic models must incorporate stochasticity if they are to adequately model experimental observations. As well as intrinsic stochasticity in gene ...

In this paper, we propose a novel optimization algorithm for examination timetabling. It works by alternating two phases; one based on a stochastic local search and the other on a deterministic local ...

We consider the spread of a general epidemic amongst a population consisting of invididuals with differing susceptibilities to the disease. Deterministic and stochastic versions of the basic model are ...
