Reinforcement learning algorithms that employ neural networks as function approximators have proven to be powerful tools for solving optimal control problems. However, their traini...
Abstract. We consider the scheduling problem of minimizing the average weighted job completion time on a single machine under precedence constraints. We show that this problem with...
Single System Image (SSI) Distributed Operating Systems have been the subject of increasing interest in recent years. This interest has been fueled primarily by the trend towards ...
