We formulate and study a decentralized multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem. There are distributed players competing for independent arms. Each arm, when played, offers i.i.d. reward a...
— We propose and analyze the Persistent Patrol Problem (PPP). An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) moving with constant speed and unbounded acceleration patrols a bounded region of t...
In future large-scale multi-core microprocessors, hard errors and process variations will create dynamic heterogeneity, causing performance and power characteristics to differ amo...
Abstract. An interesting class of production/inventory control problems considers a single product and a single stocking location, given a stochastic demand with a known non-statio...
The latency of broadcast/reduction operations has a significant impact on the performance of SIMD processors. This is especially true for associative programs, which make extensiv...
