We develop an approximate analysis of an arbitrary size homogeneous unreliable transfer line under a CONWIP discipline. Mean total work in process computatio...

A stochastic control model is proposed as a paradigm for the design of optimal timing of greenhouse gases (GHG) emissions abatement. The resolution of unce...

In Z. Ma, P.E. Caines, and R.P. Malhamé, ``Control of Loss Network Systems: Call Admission and Routing Control", (submitted to <i>SIAM J. Control...

In this paper the call admission control (CAC) and routing control (RC) problems for loss network systems are studied as optimal stochastic control (OSC) pr...

We consider stochastic dynamic games in large population conditions where multiclass agents are weakly coupled via their individual dynamics and costs. We a...

In this paper, the problem of optimally controlling production in a single part unreliable, manufacturing flow line, subjected to a constant rate of demand ...

This paper presents an analysis of the forward link capacity of a cellular network, based on IS-95 CDMA technology. The forward link, or downlink, refers to...
