Bounded Parameter Markov Decision Processes with Average Reward Criterion
Bounded parameter Markov Decision Processes (BMDPs) address the issue of dealing with uncertainty in the parameters of a Markov Decision Process (MDP). Unlike the case of an MDP, t...

Optimal Distributed P2P Streaming under Node Degree Bounds
We study the problem of maximizing the broadcast rate in peer-to-peer (P2P) systems under node degree bounds, i.e., the number of neighbors a node can simultaneously connect to is ...
