The majority of the work in the area of Markov decision processes has focused on expected values of rewards in the objective function and expected costs in the constraints. Althou...
A discrete distribution D over Σ1 × · · · × Σn is called (non-uniform) k-wise independent if for any set of k indexes {i1, . . . , ik} and for any z1 ∈ Σi1 , . . . , zk ...
This paper presents a continuous-time mathematical formulation for freshwater and wastewater minimisation in multipurpose batch plants with and without a central reusable water st...
—In this paper, we investigate the maximization of the coverage time for a clustered wireless sensor network (WSN) by optimal balancing of power consumption among cluster heads (...
In a behavioral synthesis system, a typical approach used to guide the scheduler is to impose hard constraints on the relative timing between operations considering performance, a...
