A Class of stochastic programs with decision dependent uncertainty
We address a class of problems where decisions have to be optimized over a time horizon given that the future is uncertain and that the optimization decisions influence the time o...

Decentralized planning under uncertainty for teams of communicating agents
Decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes (DEC-POMDPs) form a general framework for planning for groups of cooperating agents that inhabit a stochastic and part...

Near optimal online algorithms and fast approximation algorithms for resource allocation problems
We present algorithms for a class of resource allocation problems both in the online setting with stochastic input and in the offline setting. This class of problems contains man...
