We consider how simulation metamodels can be used to optimize the performance of a system that depends on a number of factors. We focus on the situation where the number of simula...
The consistent growth of air traffic demand is causing the operational volumes at hub airports to approach their maximum capacities. With this growth, delays are increasing, and s...
We present a formal framework to evaluate stochastic properties of MANET protocols. It captures the interplay between stochastic behavior of protocols deployed at different network...
Abstract. Ant algorithms are usually derived from a stochastic modeling based on some specific probability laws. We consider in this paper a full deterministic model of "logis...
Sustainable resource management in many domains presents large continuous stochastic optimization problems, which can often be modeled as Markov decision processes (MDPs). To solv...
