Throughput Optimal Distributed Power Control of Stochastic Wireless Networks
The Maximum Differential Backlog (MDB) control policy of Tassiulas and Ephremides has been shown to adaptively maximize the stable throughput of multihop wireless networks with ran...

Stochastic Shortest Paths Via Quasi-convex Maximization
Abstract. We consider the problem of finding shortest paths in a graph with independent randomly distributed edge lengths. Our goal is to maximize the probability that the path len...

Learning an Approximation to Inductive Logic Programming Clause Evaluation
One challenge faced by many Inductive Logic Programming (ILP) systems is poor scalability to problems with large search spaces and many examples. Randomized search methods such as ...

Near optimal online algorithms and fast approximation algorithms for resource allocation problems
We present algorithms for a class of resource allocation problems both in the online setting with stochastic input and in the offline setting. This class of problems contains man...
