A Randomized Online Learning Algorithm for Better Variance Control
We propose a sequential randomized algorithm, which at each step concentrates on functions having both low risk and low variance with respect to the previous step prediction functi...

Job scheduling methods for reducing waiting time variance
Minimizing Waiting Time Variance (WTV) is a job scheduling problem where we schedule a batch of n jobs, for servicing on a single resource, in such a way that the variance of thei...

Replicated batch means for steady-state simulations with initial transients
We provide asymptotic expressions for the expected value and variance of the replicated batch means variance estimator when the stochastic process being simulated has an additive ...

Optimal On-Line Algorithms to Minimize Makespan on Two Machines with Resource Augmentation
We study the problem of on-line scheduling on two uniformly related machines where the on-line algorithm has resources different from those of the off-line algorithm. We consider ...

Minimum variance multiplexing of multimedia objects
This paper addresses the problem of simultaneous transmission of multiple multimedia objects (such as images or video sequences) over a bandwidth-limited channel. The trivial stra...
