A number of reinforcement learning algorithms have been developed that are guaranteed to converge to the optimal solution when used with lookup tables. It is shown, however, that ...
—A fundamental problem in wireless networks is to estimate its throughput capacity - given a set of wireless nodes, and a set of connections, what is the maximum rate at which da...

We consider the multiple shift scheduling problem modelled as a covering problem. Such problems are characterized by a constraint matrix that has in every column blocks of consecu...
Motivated by applications in grid computing and projects management, we study multiprocessor scheduling in scenarios where there is uncertainty in the successful execution of jobs...
