Motivated by applications in batch scheduling of jobs in manufacturing systems and distributed computing, we study two related problems. Given is a set of jobs {J1, . . . , Jn}, w...
The "ZIP" adaptive trading algorithm has been demonstrated to outperform human traders in experimental studies of continuous double auction (CDA) markets. The original Z...
Scaling discrete AdaBoost to handle real-valued weak hypotheses has often been done under the auspices of convex optimization, but little is generally known from the original boost...
Distributed real-time systems require a predictable and verifiable mechanism to control the communication medium. Current real-time communication protocols are typically independe...
The use of genotypic populations is necessary for adaptation in Evolutionary Algorithms. We use a technique called form-invariant commutation to study the immediate effect of evol...
