Minimizing total busy time in parallel scheduling with application to optical networks
—We consider a scheduling problem in which a bounded number of jobs can be processed simultaneously by a single machine. The input is a set of n jobs J = {J1, . . . , Jn}. Each j...

Wavelength assignment to lightpaths for minimal wavelength conversions in multihop WDM networks
In multihop wavelength division multiplexing systems, a connection between two communication nodes consists of one or more lightpaths. A wavelength conversion is required at the j...

Multi-users scheduling in parallel systems
We are interested in this paper to study scheduling problems in systems where many users compete to perform their respective jobs on shared parallel resources. Each user has speci...

Learning near-optimal policies with Bellman-residual minimization based fitted policy iteration and a single sample path
Abstract. We consider batch reinforcement learning problems in continuous space, expected total discounted-reward Markovian Decision Problems. As opposed to previous theoretical wo...

Minimum Makespan Multi-vehicle Dial-a-Ride
Dial-a-Ride problems consist of a set V of n vertices in a metric space (denoting travel time between vertices) and a set of m objects represented as source-destination pairs {(si,...
