In many sensing applications we must continuously gather information to provide a good estimate of the state of the environment at every point in time. A robot may tour an environ...

Abstract--We study the design of media streaming applications in the presence of multiple heterogeneous wireless access methods with different throughputs and costs. Our objective ...
Recent research in decision theoretic planning has focussedon making the solution of Markov decision processes (MDPs) more feasible. We develop a family of algorithms for structur...

A decision process in which rewards depend on history rather than merely on the current state is called a decision process with non-Markovian rewards (NMRDP). In decisiontheoretic...
We consider a point-to-point communication system in which data packets randomly arrive to a finite-length buffer and are subsequently transmitted to a receiver over a timevarying ...
