Response Surface Methodology (RSM) is a metamodelbased optimization method. Its strategy is to explore small subregions of the parameter space in succession instead of attempting ...
The MapReduce distributed programming framework is very popular, but currently lacks the optimization techniques that have been standard with relational database systems for many ...
We present an asymptotically optimal algorithm for the max variant of the k-armed bandit problem. Given a set of k slot machines, each yielding payoff from a fixed (but unknown) d...
In this paper, techniques for optimization of net algorithms describing parallel asynchronous computations and derived from cycling and branching behavioral descriptions are prese...

Combinatorial auctions can be used to reach efficient resource and task allocations in multiagent systems where the items are complementary. Determining the winners is NP-complete...
