Stochastic Approach to Scheduling Multiple Divisible Tasks on a Heterogeneous Distributed Computing System
Heterogeneity has been considered in scheduling, but without taking into account the temporal variation of completion times of the sub-tasks for a divisible, independent task. In ...

Beyond nested parallelism: tight bounds on work-stealing overheads for parallel futures
Work stealing is a popular method of scheduling fine-grained parallel tasks. The performance of work stealing has been extensively studied, both theoretically and empirically, but...

A Bayesian framework for optimal motion planning with uncertainty
— Modeling robot motion planning with uncertainty in a Bayesian framework leads to a computationally intractable stochastic control problem. We seek hypotheses that can justify a...

Three non Conventional Paradigms of Parallel Computation
Abstract. We consider three paradigms of computation where the bene ts of a parallel solution are greater than usual. Paradigm 1 works on a time-varying input data set, whose size ...
