Markov decision processes (MDPs) and contingency planning (CP) are two widely used approaches to planning under uncertainty. MDPs are attractive because the model is extremely gen...
—A random number generator generates fair coin flips by processing deterministically an arbitrary source of nonideal randomness. An optimal random number generator generates asy...

Abstract. We give a generic construction of an optimal hitting set generator (HSG) from any good “reconstructive” disperser. Past constructions of optimal HSGs have been based ...
We address in this paper the problem of optimal coding in the framework of region-based video coding systems, with a special stress on content-based functionalities. We present a ...
—In this paper we describe a framework for the optimal control of delay tolerant mobile ad hoc networks where multiple classes of nodes co-exist. We specialize the description of...
