In this paper we study the online learning problem involving rested and restless multiarmed bandits with multiple plays. The system consists of a single player/user and a set of K...
— Uncertain data is quite common nowadays in a variety of modern database applications. At the same time, the join operation is one of the most important but expensive operations...
—Scheduling task graphs under hard (end-to-end) timing constraints is an extensively studied NP-hard problem of critical importance for predictable software mapping on Multiproce...
Abstract—We propose a model-based spatial layer bit allocation algorithm for H.264/SVC in this work. The spatial scalability of H.264/SVC is achieved by a multi-layer approach, w...
