Building Credible Input Models
Most discrete-event simulation models have stochastic elements that mimic the probabilistic nature of the system under consideration. A close match between the input model and the...

Risk Sensitive Reinforcement Learning
In this paper, we consider Markov Decision Processes (MDPs) with error states. Error states are those states entering which is undesirable or dangerous. We define the risk with re...

Competitive Parallel Disk Prefetching and Buffer Management
We provide a competitive analysis framework for online prefetching and buffer management algorithms in parallel I/O systems, using a read-once model of block references. This has ...

Beyond No Free Lunch: Realistic algorithms for arbitrary problem classes
In this paper we present a simple and general new No Free Lunch-like result that applies to revisiting algorithms searching arbitrary problem sets. We begin by unifying the assumpt...
