On characterizing sectoral interactions via connections between employees in professional online social networks
(Elsevier, 2018-12)
The collaboration among individuals is essential to maximize economic efficiency. Today most of the technological and economical advancements require multidisciplinary efforts. Therefore promoting interaction and knowledge ...
Decision rule bounds for two-stage stochastic bilevel programs
(Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics Publications, 2018)
We study two-stage stochastic bilevel programs where the leader chooses a binary here-and-now decision and the follower responds with a continuous wait-and-see decision. Using modern decision rule approximations, we construct ...
Introduction of a spatio-temporal mapping based POE method for outdoor spaces: Suburban university campus as a case study
(Elsevier, 2018-11)
Outdoor spaces are important to sustainable cities because they establish a common identity for social life by improving quality of urban living. The relation between outdoor spaces and building groups, competency, use ...
Design and simulation of an optimal energy management strategy for plug-In electric vehicles
(IEEE, 2018)
Energy management algorithms play a critical role in improving the energy efficiency of modern electric vehicles. In order to be desirable for the customer, electric vehicles should be capable of long distance driving on ...
Democratization of HPC cloud services with automated parallel solvers and application containers
(Wiley, 2018-11-10)
In this paper, we investigate several design choices for HPC services at different layers of the cloud computing architecture to simplify and broaden its use cases. We start with the platform-as-a-service (PaaS) layer and ...
Results of the first annual human-agent league of the automated negotiating agents competition
(The ACM Digital Library, 2018)
We present the results of the first annual Human-Agent League of ANAC. By introducing a new human-agent negotiating platform to the research community at large, we facilitated new advancements in human-aware agents. This ...
Approximations for constrained Markov decision problems
(Springer, 2018)
This chapter studies the finite-state approximation of a discrete-time constrained Markov decision process with compact state space, under the discounted and average cost criteria. Using the linear programming formulation ...
FoVLC: foveation based data hiding in display transmitters for visible light communications
(IEEE, 2018-08-28)
Visible light communications is an emerging architecture with unlicensed and huge bandwidth resources, security, and experimental implementations and standardization efforts. Display based transmitter and camera based ...
Self-cleaning ability quantization of textiles with degussa P-25
(Trans Tech Publications Inc., 2018)
This study proposes a systematic quantification of effectiveness of the Degussa P-25 titania particles used as a benchmark in photocatalytic applications to standardize ability of self-cleaning textile applications and to ...
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 ...
