We give an optimal dynamic programming algorithm to solve a class of finite-horizon decentralized Markov decision processes (MDPs). We consider problems with a broadcast informati...
—We consider a time-slotted multipacket reception channel, shared by a finite number of mobile users who transmit to a common base station. Each user is allocated a fixed data ...
Despite impressive advances in file system throughput resulting from technologies such as high-bandwidth networks and disk arrays, file system latency has not improved and in many...
