Decision-Theoretic Planning with non-Markovian Rewards
A decision process in which rewards depend on history rather than merely on the current state is called a decision process with non-Markovian rewards (NMRDP). In decisiontheoretic...

CPU scheduling for statistically-assured real-time performance and improved energy efficiency
We present a CPU scheduling algorithm, called Energy-efficient Utility Accrual Algorithm (or EUA), for battery-powered, embedded real-time systems. We consider an embedded softwar...
