[Reading] Uncapacitated single and multiple allocation p-hub center problems

Authors: Andreas T. Ernst et. al. , ELSEVIE, 2007

The paper refers to "p-hub" concept using for reducing the total cost of any networks - telecommunication, postal network, and even airline. The idea is to use a set of hubs to consolidate something (e.g., data, passengers, materials, ...). Two kinds of allocations studied by the authors - uncapacitated single allocation p-hub center problem (USApHCP) and uncapacitated multiple allocation p-hub center porblem (UMApHCP). They need to minimize the discounted cost of the largest origin-destination pair path : min max (cost) by using integer programming.

Lunch Today - Stir Fried Pork with Basil

Yun & Tutu cooked Stir Fried Pork with Basil. Actually I don't know how to call this food in English. I know only it is my most favorite menu. This couple cooks so nice. Score 5/5 is too less.

Supper Today : Shochu & Roasted Chicken

The supper is roasted chicken (only S$ 4.6). The drink is Shochu, a Japanese vodka-like with alcohol 25% (S$ 11). I drink it straight (without ice / mixture). I like this drink due to its purely strong degree.

Lunch Today - Fried Sa-Taw @ Home

I bought Fried Sa-Taw (mixed with another) from Sky Thai in Jurong Point. If you don't know what Sa-Taw looks like, see the picture above. Cited from Wikipedia, Sa-Taw has many names - Parkia Speciosa (its binomial name), petai, bitter bean, and even stink bean. Yes! it has a strong smell, so we call "stink bean". The taste is bitter that's why we call "bitter bean" .But I think it's bitter-sweet. Although, it's bitter stench, I still enjoy to eat Sa-Taw.

Ok! this menu I give 5/5 score!

Where's my Money ?

In this month I haven't got salary! Actually I should get it since the end of Feb. This salary is the stipend of the scholarship I've got from school for a year.

Yesterday, I asked a woman who could help me, but she said only the other man and my adviser can do. Unfortunately, both of them are not here on this week. So I have to wait for the assistance until next week. Today I went to ask the financial office to assist me. But they said they haven't got my annual report which is important to renew my scholarship. That's terrible! Because I used to submit the report since last year but why they haven't got it.

Ok! nobody can answer who's making mistake and it does not matter to know. I submitted the report again but I have to wait my adviser to sign the report. Poor me! I have to save money in this month because I might get the salary until the end of this month.
