—This paper describes efficient utilization of human time by two means: prioritization of human tasks and maximizing multirobot team size. We propose an efficient scheduling algo...
Dryad is a general-purpose distributed execution engine for coarse-grain data-parallel applications. A Dryad application combines computational “vertices” with communication ...

In this work we present an approach to solving time-critical decision-making problems by taking advantage of domain structure to expand the amountof time available for processing ...
The choice of a good annealing schedule is necessary for good performance of simulated annealing for combinatorial optimization problems. In this paper, we pose the simulated anne...
