A Sub-Optimal Policy for Connection Admission Control Mechanism in Cognitive Radio Sensor Networks

open access: yesInternational Journal of Information and Communication Technology Research, 2017
Satisfying the quality of service (QoS) is a crucial issue in cognitive radio sensor networks (CRSNs) due to the highly variable nature of cognitive radio channels.

Quality Performance Criterion Model for Distributed Automated Control Systems Based on Markov Processes for Smart Grid

open access: yesApplied Sciences
This paper addresses the problem of decision-making support for the modernization of distributed automated control systems (ACS) in power engineering by proposing an integral quality criterion that combines similarity-driven Markov process modeling with ...

A semi-Markov model for price returns

open access: yes, 2011
We study the high frequency price dynamics of traded stocks by a model of returns using a semi-Markov approach. More precisely we assume that the intraday return are described by a discrete time homogeneous semi-Markov process and the overnight returns ...

To Code or Not to Code: When and How to Use Network Coding in Energy Harvesting Wireless Multi-Hop Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access
The broadcast nature of communication in transmission media has driven the rise of network coding’s popularity in wireless networks. Numerous benefits arise from employing network coding in multi-hop wireless networks, including enhanced ...

A Semi-Markov Modulated Interest Rate Model

open access: yes, 2012
In this paper we propose a semi-Markov modulated model of interest rates. We assume that the switching process is a semi-Markov process with finite state space E and the modulated process is a diffusive process.

Continuous-Observation Partially Observable Semi-Markov Decision Processes for Machine Maintenance [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Reliability, 2017
Partially observable semi-Markov decision processes (POSMDPs) provide a rich framework for planning under both state transition uncertainty and observation uncertainty. In this paper, we widen the literature on POSMDP by studying discrete-state, discrete-action yet continuous-observation POSMDPs.

Asymptotic Expansions for Stationary Distributions of Perturbed Semi-Markov Processes

open access: yes, 2016
New algorithms for computing of asymptotic expansions for stationary distributions of nonlinearly perturbed semi-Markov processes are presented. The algorithms are based on special techniques of sequential phase space reduction, which can be applied to ...

Self-Optimizing and Pareto-Optimal Policies in General Environments based on Bayes-Mixtures

open access: yes, 2002
The problem of making sequential decisions in unknown probabilistic environments is studied. In cycle $t$ action $y_t$ results in perception $x_t$ and reward $r_t$, where all quantities in general may depend on the complete history.

Managing Wind Power Generation via Indexed Semi-Markov Model and Copula

open access: yesEnergies, 2020
Because of the stochastic nature of wind turbines, the output power management of wind power generation (WPG) is a fundamental challenge for the integration of wind energy systems into either power systems or microgrids (i.e., isolated systems consisting
