Optimal control problems involve the difficult task of determining time-varying profiles through dynamic optimization. Such problems become even more complex in practical situatio...
—Much research has been devoted to maximize the life time of mobile ad-hoc networks. Life time has often been defined as the time elapsed until the first node is out of battery...
—This paper introduces an algorithm for direct search of control policies in continuous-state discrete-action Markov decision processes. The algorithm looks for the best closed-l...

—In this paper, we propose a new streaming protocol, namely Dynamic Video Rate Control (DVRC), which enables adaptive video delivery over the Internet. DVRC operates on top of UD...
This paper considers short-term energy management of a wind power plant with battery storage, in order to smooth the variations of power output to the external grid. An optimal on...
