Suppose a decision maker has to purchase a commodity over time with varying prices and demands. In particular, the price per unit might depend on the amount purchased and this pri...
In this paper, we propose a new lower approximation scheme for POMDP with discounted and average cost criterion. The approximating functions are determined by their values at a fi...
Parallel disks provide a cost effective way of speeding up I/Os in applications that work with large amounts of data. The main challenge is to achieve as much parallelism as poss...
Traditional minimum area retiming algorithms attempt to achieve their prescribed objective with no regard to maintaining the initial state of the system. This issue is important f...
