Network Survivability Simulation of a Commercially Deployed Dynamic Routing System Protocol
With the ever-increasing demands on server applications, many new server services are distributed in nature. We evaluated one hundred deployed systems and found that over a one-yea...

Brief announcement: asynchronous bounded expected delay networks
We propose a natural generalisation of asynchronous bounded delay (ABD) network models. The commonly used ABD models assume a known bound on message delay. This assumption is ofte...

Modeling design constraints and biasing in simulation using BDDs
Constraining and input biasing are frequently used techniques in functional verification methodologies based on randomized simulation generation. Constraints confine the simulatio...

Signal-to-Noise Ratio Analysis of Policy Gradient Algorithms
Policy gradient (PG) reinforcement learning algorithms have strong (local) convergence guarantees, but their learning performance is typically limited by a large variance in the e...
