In this article we have adapted productivity analysis to the case of a cost model using a quadratic cost function and discrete data. The main theoretical result is a productivity index that can be ...

The 0-1 quadratic knapsack problem (QKP) consists of maximizing a quadratic objective function subject to a linear constraint, where the variables are binary (0 or 1). It has applications in several ...

Abstract: Here we consider a single vehicle routing problem (of unlimited capacity and capacity constraint can be easily included) that visits different dealers. As it visits the first dealer, it ...

Abstract: In this article, an unified distributed multiagent system is proposed to minimize the time-varying quadratic function under the time-varying coupled equality constraint, which is further ...

All quadratic functions have the same type of curved graphs with a line of symmetry. The graph of the quadratic function \(y = ax^2 + bx + c \) has a minimum turning point when \(a \textgreater 0 \) ...

Practice how to recognise and determine the equation of a quadratic function from its graph ahead of your National 5 Maths exam with this interactive maths quiz. The equation of a a quadratic function ...
