Abstract. Approximate dynamic programming offers a new modeling and algorithmic strategy for complex problems such as rail operations. Problems in rail operations are often modeled...
Message passing is a very popular style of parallel programming, used in a wide variety of applications and supported by many APIs, such as BSD sockets, MPI and PVM. Its importance...
Decision support applications involve complex queries on very large databases. Since response times should be small, query optimization is critical. Users typically view the data ...
