We present a new hybrid algorithm for local search in distributed combinatorial optimization. This method is a mix between classical local search methods in which nodes take decis...
— We introduce a new algorithmic framework for advanced channel reservation in ultra high speed networks, called Graded Channel Reservation (GCR). GCR allows users to specify min...

Simulatability constitutes the cryptographic notion of a secure refinement and has asserted its position as one of the fundamental concepts of modern cryptography. Although simula...
We consider the problem of efficiently designing sets (codes) of equal-length DNA strings (words) that satisfy certain combinatorial constraints. This problem has numerous motivati...
Factored representations, model-based learning, and hierarchies are well-studied techniques for improving the learning efficiency of reinforcement-learning algorithms in large-sca...
