Advance Reservations(AR) make it possible to guarantee the QoS of Grid applications by reserving a particular resource capability over a defined time interval on local resources. H...
In this paper, we study online algorithms when the input is not chosen adversarially, but consists of draws from some given probability distribution. While this model has been stu...
— Dynamic scheduling management in wireless sensor networks is one of the most challenging problems in long lifetime monitoring applications. In this paper, we propose and evalua...

The success of stochastic algorithms is often due to their ability to effectively amplify the performance of search heuristics. This is certainly the case with stochastic sampling ...
—This paper considers the problem of pricing and transmission scheduling for an Access Point (AP) in a wireless network, where the AP provides service to a set of mobile users. T...
