Statistical non-parametric algorithms to estimate the optimal software rejuvenation schedule
In this paper, we extend the classical result by Huang, Kintala, Kolettis and Fulton (1995), and in addition propose a modified stochastic model to determine the software rejuvena...

Effects of failure correlation on software in operation
Since the early 1970's a number of models have been proposed for estimating software reliability. However, the realism of many of the underlying assumptions and the applicabi...

Interaction Structure and Dimensionality Reduction in Decentralized MDPs
Decentralized Markov Decision Processes are a powerful general model of decentralized, cooperative multi-agent problem solving. The high complexity of the general problem leads to...

Criticality Metrics for Distributed Plan and Schedule Management
We address the problem of coordinating the plans and schedules for a team of agents in an uncertain and dynamic environment. Bounded rationality, bounded communication, subjectivi...

On step sizes, stochastic shortest paths, and survival probabilities in Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a simulation-based technique useful in solving Markov decision processes if their transition probabilities are not easily obtainable or if the probl...
