Abstract. Grid computing is a form of distributed computing that involves coordinating and sharing computing, application, data storage or network resources across dynamic and geog...
A problem of assigning cooperating uninhabited aerial vehicles to perform multiple tasks on multiple targets is posed as a new combinatorial optimization problem. A genetic algori...

Randomization is an efficient tool for global optimization. We here define a method which keeps : – the order 0 of evolutionary algorithms (no gradient) ; – the stochastic as...
We consider a finite-state Markov decision problem and establish the convergence of a special case of optimistic policy iteration that involves Monte Carlo estimation of Q-values,...
We present an improved oracle for the distance sensitivity problem. The goal is to preprocess a directed graph G = (V, E) with non-negative edge weights to answer queries of the f...
