This paper presents improved approximation algorithms for the problem of multiprocessor scheduling under uncertainty (SUU), in which the execution of each job may fail probabilist...

We propose a scheme for building peer-to-peer overlay networks for broadcasting using network coding. The scheme addresses many practical issues such as scalability, robustness, c...
This paper explores what kind of user simulation model is suitable for developing a training corpus for using Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) to automatically learn dialog strate...
— The rapid transit network design problem considers at upper level the list of potential transit corridors and stations to design the network as a discrete space of alternatives...
In this paper we propose a new integer programming formulation for the multilevel facility location problem and a novel 3-approximation algorithm based on LP rounding. The linear ...
