Background: MapReduce is a parallel framework that has been used effectively to design largescale parallel applications for large computing clusters. In this paper, we evaluate th...
We study approaches that fit a linear combination of basis functions to the continuation value function of an optimal stopping problem and then employ a greedy policy based on the...
We study an extension of the precedence constrained knapsack problem where the knapsack can be filled in multiple periods. This problem is known in the mining industry as the open...

We propose both robust and data-driven approaches to a fluid model of call centers that incorporates random arrival rates with abandonment to determine staff levels and dynamic ro...
We present a system, called RZ, for automatic generation of program specifications from mathematical theories. We translate mathematical theories to specifications by computing th...
