Analyses of Load Stealing Models Based on Differential Equations
In this paper we develop models for and analyze several randomized work stealing algorithms in a dynamic setting. Our models represent the limiting behavior of systems as the numb...

The finite horizon investor problem with a budget constraint
We study a model that incorporates a budget constraint in a decision making problem. Our goal is to maximize the expected wealth, where in each time period we can either stop the ...
