Economical Caching with Stochastic Prices
In the economical caching problem, an online algorithm is given a sequence of prices for a certain commodity. The algorithm has to manage a buffer of fixed capacity over time. We...

Stochastic analyses for online combinatorial optimization problems
In this paper, we study online algorithms when the input is not chosen adversarially, but consists of draws from some given probability distribution. While this model has been stu...

Control Strategies for a Stochastic Planner
We present new algorithms for local planning over Markov decision processes. The base-level algorithm possesses several interesting features for control of computation, based on s...
