This paper discusses theoretical and experimental aspects of gradient-based approaches to the direct optimization of policy performance in controlled ??? ?s. We introduce ??? ?, a...
The interdiction problem arises in a variety of areas including military logistics, infectious disease control, and counter-terrorism. In the typical formulation of network interdi...
—Ant Colony Optimization (ACO) algorithm is a novel meta-heuristic algorithm for the approximate solution of combinatorial optimization problems that has been inspired by the for...
A core-based group-shared multicast tree is a shortest path tree rooted at core node that distributes packets to and from all group members. Traditionally, the bandwidth cost cons...
Traditional timing-driven placement considers only combinational delays and does not take into account the potential of subsequent sequential optimization steps. As a result, the ...
