Stochastic trust region gradient-free method (strong): a new response-surface-based algorithm in simulation optimization
Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is a metamodelbased optimization method. Its strategy is to explore small subregions of the parameter space in succession instead of attempting ...

Direct Pattern Matching on Compressed Text
We present a fast compression and decompression technique for natural language texts. The novelty is that the exact search can be done on the compressed text directly, using any k...

Approximate Time-Parallel Cache Simulation
In time-parallel simulation, the simulation time axis is decomposed into a number of slices which are assigned to parallel processes for concurrent simulation. Although a promisin...
