We address performance issues associated with simulationbased algorithms for optimizing Markov reward processes. Specifically, we are concerned with algorithms that exploit the re...
Multitrajectory Simulation allows random events in a simulation to generate multiple trajectories. Management techniques have been developed to manage the choices of trajectories ...
We consider the problem of optimal allocation of computing budget to maximize the probability of correct selection in the ordinal optimization setting. This problem has been studi...
This paper uses a probe-based sampling approach to study the behavioural properties of Web server scheduling strategies, such as Processor Sharing (PS) and Shortest Remaining Proc...
In order to understand AdaBoost’s dynamics, especially its ability to maximize margins, we derive an associated simplified nonlinear iterated map and analyze its behavior in lo...
