In packet switches, packets queue at switch inputs and contend for outputs. The contention arbitration policy directly affects switch performance. The best policy depends on the c...
We explore dynamic shaping to integrate our prior beliefs of the final policy into a conventional reinforcement learning system. Shaping provides a positive or negative artificial...
— Multi-agent systems (MAS) are a field of study of growing interest in a variety of domains such as robotics or distributed controls. The article focuses on decentralized reinf...
Imitation can be viewed as a means of enhancing learning in multiagent environments. It augments an agent’s ability to learn useful behaviors by making intelligent use of the kn...
Efficiently utilizing off-chip DRAM bandwidth is a critical issue in designing cost-effective, high-performance chip multiprocessors (CMPs). Conventional memory controllers deli...
