Expressing performance requirements using regular expressions to specify stochastic probes over process algebra models
This paper describes how soft performance bounds can be expressed for software systems using stochastic probes over stochastic process algebra models. These stochastic probes are ...

Combining Stochastic Task Models with Reinforcement Learning for Dynamic Scheduling
We view dynamic scheduling as a sequential decision problem. Firstly, we introduce a generalized planning operator, the stochastic task model (STM), which predicts the effects of ...

Lumping partially symmetrical stochastic models
Performance and dependability evaluation of complex systems by means of dynamic stochastic models (e.g. Markov chains) may be impaired by the combinatorial explosion of their stat...

Perturbation analysis and optimization of multiclass multiobjective Stochastic Flow Models
Stochastic Flow Models (SFMs) are stochastic ystems that abstract the dynamics of complex discrete event systems involving the control of sharable resources. SFMs have been used to...
