Online stochastic optimization under time constraints
This paper considers online stochastic optimization problems where uncertainties are characterized by a distribution that can be sampled and where time constraints severely limit t...

Monte-Carlo optimizations for resource allocation problems in stochastic network systems
Real-world distributed systems and networks are often unreliable and subject to random failures of its components. Such a stochastic behavior affects adversely the complexity of o...

Distributed Stochastic Subgradient Projection Algorithms for Convex Optimization
We consider a distributed multi-agent network system where the goal is to minimize a sum of agent objective functions subject to a common set of constraints. For this problem, we p...

Assessing solution quality in stochastic programs
Determining if a solution is optimal or near optimal is fundamental in optimization theory, algorithms, and computation. For instance, Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions provide necessa...

Ant colony optimization for continuous domains
In this paper we present an extension of ant colony optimization (ACO) to continuous domains. We show how ACO, which was initially developed to be a metaheuristic for combinatoria...
