The precise specification of reward functions for Markov decision processes (MDPs) is often extremely difficult, motivating research into both reward elicitation and the robust so...
In this paper, we address the optimal joint control of inventory and transshipment for a firm that produces in two locations and faces capacity uncertainty. Capacity uncertainty (...
This paper is motivated by the need to support multiple service classes in fast packet-switched networks. We address the problem of characterizing and designing scheduling policie...
Manufacturable design requires matching of interconnects which have equal nominal dimensions. New design rules are projected to bring guarantee rules for interconnect matching. In...
This paper examines the area, power, performance, and design issues for the on-chip interconnects on a chip multiprocessor, attempting to present a comprehensive view of a class o...
