We propose an improved restart strategy for randomized backtrack search, and evaluate its performance by comparing to other heuristic and stochastic search techniques for solving r...
We present a technique for computing approximately optimal solutions to stochastic resource allocation problems modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs). We exploit two key pro...

This paper deals with a congestion control framework for elastic and real-time traffic, where the user's application is associated with a utility function. We allow users to ...
Distributed allocation and multiagent coordination problems can be solved through combinatorial auctions (CAs). However, most of the existing winner determination algorithms (WDAs...
—When users submit new queries to a distributed stream processing system (DSPS), a query planner must allocate physical resources, such as CPU cores, memory and network bandwidth...
