Approximate Dynamic Programming via Sum of Squares Programming [PDF]
We describe an approximate dynamic programming method for stochastic control problems on infinite state and input spaces. The optimal value function is approximated by a linear combination of basis functions with coefficients as decision variables.

In Praise of Impredicativity: A Contribution to the Formalisation of Meta-Programming [PDF]
Processing programs as data is one of the successes of functional and logic programming. Higher-order functions, as program-processing programs are called in functional programming, and meta-programs, as they are called in logic programming, are widespread declarative programming techniques.

Program Evaluation and Random Program Starts [PDF]
This paper discusses the evaluation problem using observational data when the timing of treatment is an outcome of a stochastic process. We show that, without additional assumptions, it is not possible to estimate the average treatment effect and treatment on the treated. It is, however, possible to estimate the effect of treatment on the treated up to

A framework for understanding the factors influencing pair programming success [PDF]
Pair programming is one of the more controversial aspects of several Agile system development methods, in particular eXtreme Programming (XP). Various studies have assessed factors that either drive the success or suggest advantages (and disadvantages ...

Special Type Routing Problems in Plane Graphs
We considered routing problems for plane graphs to solve control problems of cutting machines in the industry. According to the cutting plan, we form its homeomorphic image in the form of a plane graph G.

Minecraft: An Engaging Platform to Learn Programming [PDF]
Teaching programming effectively is difficult. This paper explores the benefits of using Minecraft Education Edition to teach Python programming. Educators can use the game to teach various programming concepts ranging from fundamental programming concepts, object-oriented programming, event-driven programming, and parallel programming.

On the Reformulated Second Zagreb Index of Graph Operations
Topological indices (TIs) are expressed by constant real numbers that reveal the structure of the graphs in QSAR/QSPR investigation. The reformulated second Zagreb index (RSZI) is such a novel TI having good correlations with various physical attributes,

Block-diagonal semidefinite programming hierarchies for 0/1 programming [PDF]
Lovasz and Schrijver, and later Lasserre, proposed hierarchies of semidefinite programming relaxations for general 0/1 linear programming problems. In this paper these two constructions are revisited and two new, block-diagonal hierarchies are proposed ...
