Improving quality of prediction in highly dynamic environments using approximate dynamic programming
In many applications, decision making under uncertainty often involves two steps- prediction of a certain quality parameter or indicator of the system under study and the subseque...

Biasing Approximate Dynamic Programming with a Lower Discount Factor
Most algorithms for solving Markov decision processes rely on a discount factor, which ensures their convergence. It is generally assumed that using an artificially low discount f...

Improved dynamic rate shaping for H.264/AVC video streams
In this paper, dynamic rate shaping for H.264/AVC intracoded video streams is investigated. An analysis of the distortion distinguishes different error components that lead to the...

Improving the System Performance by a Dynamic File Prediction Model
As the speed gap between CPU and I/O is getting wider and wider, I/O latency plays a more important role to the overall system performance than it used to be. Prefetching consecut...
