Dynamic virtual machine management via approximate Markov decision process [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE INFOCOM 2016 - The 35th Annual IEEE International Conference on Computer Communications, 2016
Efficient virtual machine (VM) management can dramatically reduce energy consumption in data centers. Existing VM management algorithms fall into two categories based on whether the VMs' resource demands are assumed to be static or dynamic.

Optimal control and optimal sensor activation for Markov decision problems with costly observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This paper considers partial observation Markov decision processes. Besides the classical control decisions influencing the transition probabilities of the Markov process, we also consider control actions that can activate the sensors to provide more or ...

An Approach to Customer Behavior Modeling using Markov Decision Process

open access: yesMendel, 2017
This paper presents an application of Markov Decision Process method for modeling of selected marketing processes. Based on available realistic data, MDP model is constructed. Customer behavior is represented by a set of states of the model with assigned

Markov Decision Process

open access: yesEnergy Harvesting Wireless Communications, 2018
Markov decision processes have become an indispensable tool in applications as diverse as equipment maintenance, manufacturing systems, inventory control, queuing networks and investment analysis. Typically we have a controlled Markov chain on a suitable

Decentralized Control of Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes using Belief Space Macro-actions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The focus of this paper is on solving multi-robot planning problems in continuous spaces with partial observability. Decentralized partially observable Markov decision processes (Dec-POMDPs) are general models for multi-robot coordination problems, but ...

Feeding System’s Sensitivity and Reliability Analysis through Markov Decision Process [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematical, Engineering and Management Sciences
The present study investigates a Feeding system, which is responsible for continuous coal supply to the boiler of coal fired power plants. As a result of complex working condition in the power plant, feeding system is prone to system failure.

Artificial intelligence framework for simulating clinical decision-making: A Markov decision process approach [PDF]

open access: yesArtif. Intell. Medicine, 2013
OBJECTIVE In the modern healthcare system, rapidly expanding costs/complexity, the growing myriad of treatment options, and exploding information streams that often do not effectively reach the front lines hinder the ability to choose optimal treatment ...

Decision Making with STPA through Markov Decision Process, a Theoretic Framework for Safe Human-Robot Collaboration

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2021
During the last decades, collaborative robots capable of operating out of their cages are widely used in industry to assist humans in mundane and harsh manufacturing tasks. Although such robots are inherently safe by design, they are commonly accompanied

Sensor Scheduling for Optimal Observability Using Estimation Entropy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We consider sensor scheduling as the optimal observability problem for partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDP). This model fits to the cases where a Markov process is observed by a single sensor which needs to be dynamically adjusted or by
