Finite approximations in discrete-time stochastic control quantized models and asymptotic optimality introduction and summary
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)Control and optimization of dynamical systems in the presence of stochastic uncertainty is a mature field with a large range of applications. A comprehensive treatment of such problems can be found in excellent books and ... -
Finite model approximations in decentralized stochastic control
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the approximation of static and dynamic team problems using finite models which are obtained through the uniform discretization, on a finite grid, of the observation and action spaces of agents. ... -
Finite-action approximation of Markov decision processes
(Birkhäuser Basel, 2018)In this chapter, we study the finite-action approximation of optimal control policies for discrete-time Markov decision processes (MDPs) with Borel state and action spaces, under discounted and average cost criteria. One ... -
Finite-SNR diversity gain analysis of FSO systems over gamma-gamma fading channels with pointing errors
(IEEE, 2021-06)Free space optical (FSO) communication systems are subject to turbulence-induced fading as a result of fluctuations in the refractive index. Gamma-Gamma (GG) distribution is commonly used in the literature to characterize ... -
Finite-SNR diversity-multiplexing tradeoff for network coded cooperative OFDMA systems
(IEEE, 2017-03)Network-coded cooperation (NCC) is an effective method to improve the throughput efficiency in cooperative wireless networks. The combined use of orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with NCC has been further ... -
Finite-SNR DMT analysis for multisource multirelay NCC systems with imperfect CSI
(IEEE, 2016)Network coded cooperative (NCC) systems have recently attracted attention with their high spectral and power efficiency. In this paper, we investigate the information theoretical limits of NCC systems in the presence of ... -
Finite-state approximation of Markov decision processes
(Springer, 2018)In this chapter we study the finite-state approximation problem for computing near optimal policies for discrete-time MDPs with Borel state and action spaces, under discounted and average costs criteria. Even though existence ... -
Finite-state approximations to discounted and average cost constrained Markov decision processes
(IEEE, 2019-07)In this paper, we consider the finite-state approximation of a discrete-time constrained Markov decision process (MDP) under the discounted and average cost criteria. Using the linear programming formulation of the constrained ... -
The FIRMER-square contour algorithm
(Springer International Publishing, 2013)The recently proposed Square Contour Algorithm (SCA) provides a good solution to the blind equalization problem as it does not suffer from any type of phase rotation. However, its suitability to Code Division Multiple ... -
First lattice calculation of charmed hadrons' electromagnetic form factors
(IOP Publishing, 2014)Electromagnetic form factors of D and D* mesons and Ξcc, Σc, Ωc and Ωcc baryons are calculated in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. As a by product of this calculation electric/magnetic charge radii and magnetic moments are extracted. ... -
First measurement of large area jet transverse momentum spectra in heavy-ion collisions
(Springer, 2021-05-31)Jet production in lead-lead (PbPb) and proton-proton (pp) collisions at a nucleon-nucleon center-of-mass energy of 5.02 TeV is studied with the CMS detector at the LHC, using PbPb and pp data samples corresponding to ... -
First measurement of the cross section for top quark pair production with additional charm jets using dileptonic final states in pp collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(Elsevier, 2021-09-10)The first measurement of the inclusive cross section for top quark pairs (tt‾) produced in association with two additional charm jets is presented. The analysis uses the dileptonic final states of tt‾ events produced in ... -
First measurement of the forward rapidity gap distribution in pPb collisions at √s NN = 8.16 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2023-11-20)For the first time at LHC energies, the forward rapidity gap spectra from proton-lead collisions for both proton and lead dissociation processes are presented. The analysis is performed over 10.4 units of pseudorapidity ... -
First measurement of the top quark pair production cross section in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13.6 TeV
(Springer, 2023-08-30)The first measurement of the top quark pair (t (t) over bar) production cross section in proton-proton collisions at root s = 13.6TeV is presented. Data recorded with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC in Summer 2022, ... -
First search for exclusive diphoton production at high mass with tagged protons in proton-proton collisions at √s = 13 TeV
(American Physical Society, 2022-06-28)A search for exclusive two-photon production via photon exchange in proton-proton collisions, pp→pγγp with intact protons, is presented. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 9.4 fb-1 collected in 2016 using ... -
First-principle diffraction simulations as a tool to solve the nanodiffraction problem

Flexibility assessment tool by failure-based uncertainty management in power systems
(IEEE, 2019)Flexibility in power systems operations is the capability to operate the system under secure conditions even after a sudden change in the system conditions. One of the sudden change may be considered as the failure of ... -
Flexible aircraft fleeting and routing at TunisAir
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2011-02)This paper addresses a Flexible Aircraft Fleeting and Routing Problem, which is motivated by the Tunisian national carrier TunisAir. A solution to this problem specifies the departure time of each flight, the subset of ... -
Flexible architecture of relay-based wireless network for network lifetime extension with hop-count constraint
(Informa Group, 2011)In relay-based wireless networks, messages need to be forwarded via intermediate relay mobile terminals (MTs). However, because of various transmission distances and unbalanced traffic load, some relay MTs may tend to drain ... -
Flexible generalized spatial modulation for visible light communications
(IEEE, 2021-01)Adaptive spatial modulation (ASM) varies the modulation size across the transmit light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to improve the overall spectral efficiency of visible light communication (VLC) systems. This article proposes ...
