While greedy best-first search (GBFS) is a popular algorithm for solving automated planning tasks, it can exhibit poor performance if the heuristic in use mistakenly identifies a region of the search space as promising. In such cases, the way the algorithm greedily trusts the heuristic can cause...

In this thesis, we investigate the empirical performance of several experience replay techniques. Efficient experience replay plays an important role in model-free reinforcement learning by improving sample efficiency through reusing past experience. However, replay-based methods were largely...

Application-layer versus Network-layer Multicast: Networking Load, Link Stress, and Distribution Delay
DownloadFall 2017
Multicast is the task of disseminating a message from a source to a set of destinations. If supported by the network and switches, multicast can be performed at the network layer. The alternative solution is application-layer multicast (ALM) which disseminates the message through a set of unicast...

Approximation Algorithms for Multi-processor Task Scheduling Problems on Identical Parallel Processors
DownloadFall 2013
In this thesis we present approximation algorithms for some multi-processor task scheduling problems. In a scheduling problem, there is a set of processors P that can be used to process a set of tasks T and the goal is to find a feasible scheduling of the tasks on the processors, while optimizing...

In a region such as the Athabasca Oil Sands, a major consequence of resource development is the need to transport people, materials and energy into and out of the region. While resource development has encouraged the establishment or upgrading of transportation infrastructure such as roads, a...
