We address the problem of minimizing the propagation of undesirable things, such as computer viruses or malicious rumors, by blocking a limited number of links in a network, a dua...
In this paper, we present ARF, our initial effort at solving taskallocation problems where cooperative agents need to perform tasks simultaneously. An example is multi-agent routi...
We study the stochastic machine replenishment problem, which is a canonical special case of closed multiclass queuing systems in Markov decision theory. The problem models the sche...
A GRASP (greedy randomized adaptive search procedure) is a multi-start metaheuristic for combinatorial optimization. We study the probability distributions of solution time to a su...

We design lifting-based wavelet transforms for any arbitrary communication graph in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Since transmitting raw data bits along the routing trees in WS...
