Towards the development of an optimal SDN controller placement framework to expedite SDN deployment in emerging markets by Mamushiane, Lusani

“…In order to contextualize the problem to emerging markets and maintain realism, a local national research and education wide area network called SANReN is used to test the proposed algorithms. This study can potentially be used by network operators as a guideline to start integrating SDN or plan a new SDN deployment, by helping them make quick automatic decisions regarding optimal controller placement.…”

Modeling and optimization of single-leg multi-fare class overbooking problem: the case of Ethiopian Airlines by Bonsa, Getachew Basa

“…The overbooking model developed was solved using both a closed form approach using derivatives and Monte Carlo simulation with a derivative free optimization algorithm. A comparison of the revenue generated from no-overbooking policy, the closed form solution, and the Monte Carlo simulation solution approach shows that the Monte Carlo simulation solution approach performs well. …”
