64c Approximate Dynamic Programming Based Strategy for Markov Decision Problems in Process Control and Scheduling
Most interesting problems in process control and scheduling can be formulated as a Markov Decision Problem (MDP). This includes real-time decision problems (e.g., feedback control and information-based rescheduling) that involve significant amounts of stochastic uncertainty. Optimal policy for MDPs can be derived by solving an associated stochastic dynamic programming (DP) problem. However, the...
متن کاملEnergy Efficient Scheduling of Application Components via Brownout and Approximate Markov Decision Process
Unexpected loads in Cloud data centers may trigger overloaded situation and performance degradation. To guarantee system performance, cloud computing environment is required to have the ability to handle overloads. The existing approaches, like Dynamic Voltage Frequency Scaling and VM consolidation, are effective in handling partial overloads, however, they cannot function when the whole data c...
متن کاملApproximate Dynamic Programming by Linear Programming for Stochastic Scheduling
In stochastic scheduling, we want to allocate a limited amount of resources to a set of jobs that need to be serviced. Unlike in deterministic scheduling, however, the parameters of the system may be stochastic. For example, the time it takes to process a job may be subject to random fluctuations. Stochastic scheduling problems occur in a variety of practical situations, such as manufacturing, ...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Scheduling Elective Surgeries for Minimizing the Waiting Times in Emergency Surgeries
The ever-increasing demands for surgeries and the limited resources force hospitals to have efficient management of resources, especially the expensive ones like operating rooms (ORs). Scheduling surgeries including sequencing them, assigning resources to them and determining their start times is a complicated task for hospital managers. Surgery referrals usually include elective surgeries that...
