Abstract--The Distributed Stochastic Algorithm (DSA), Distributed Breakout Algorithm (DBA), and variations such as Distributed Simulated Annealing (DSAN), MGM-1, and DisPeL, are di...
Distributed optimal traffic engineering in the presence of multiple paths has been found to be a difficult problem to solve. In this paper, we introduce a new approach in an attem...
A black hole is a harmful host that destroys incoming agents without leaving any observable trace of such a destruction. The black hole search problem is to unambiguously determine...
Markov Decision Processes (MDP) have been widely used as a framework for planning under uncertainty. They allow to compute optimal sequences of actions in order to achieve a given...
We study the average-case performance of algorithms for the binary knapsack problem. Our focus lies on the analysis of so-called core algorithms, the predominant algorithmic conce...
