Abstract— Accurate measurement of network bandwidth is crucial for network management applications as well as flexible Internet applications and protocols which actively manage ...
—The Job-Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP) is one of the most critical combinatorial optimization problems. The objective of JSSP in this research is to minimize the makespan. In th...

We present a Kernighan-Lin style local improvement heuristic for genetic algorithms. We analyze the run-time cost of the heuristic. We demonstrate through experiments that the heur...
Real-world distributed systems and networks are often unreliable and subject to random failures of its components. Such a stochastic behavior affects adversely the complexity of o...
When modeling real-world decision-theoretic planning problems in the Markov decision process (MDP) framework, it is often impossible to obtain a completely accurate estimate of tr...
