Automated Generation of Understandable Contingency Plans
Markov decision processes (MDPs) and contingency planning (CP) are two widely used approaches to planning under uncertainty. MDPs are attractive because the model is extremely gen...

A parallelizable dynamic fleet management model with random travel times
In this paper, we present a stochastic model for the dynamic fleet management problem with random travel times. Our approach decomposes the problem into time-staged subproblems by...

Structuring Optimizing Transformations and Proving Them Sound
A compiler optimization is sound if the optimized program that it produces is semantically equivalent to the input program. The proofs of semantic equivalence are usually tedious....

Adaptive Management of Composite Services under Percentile-Based Service Level Agreements
We present a brokering service for the adaptive management of composite services. The goal of this broker is to dynamically adapt at runtime the composite service configuration, ...

Infeasibility Detection and SQP Methods for Nonlinear Optimization
This paper addresses the need for nonlinear programming algorithms that provide fast local convergence guarantees no matter if a problem is feasible or infeasible. We present an a...
