Access Path Based Dataflow Analysis For Sequential And Concurrent Programs
(2016-09-14)In this thesis, we have developed a flow-sensitive data flow analysis framework for value set analyses for Java-like languages. Our analysis frame work is based on access paths—a variable followed by zero or more field ... -
ACE-Model: A Conceptual Evolutionary Model For Evolutionary Computation And Artificial Life
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-07)Darwinian Evolutionary system - a system satisfying the abstract conditions: reproduction with heritable variation, in a finite world, giving rise to Natural Selection encompasses a complex and subtle system of interrelated ... -
Achieving Fairness in the Stochastic Multi-Armed Bandit Problem
The classical Stochastic Multi-armed Bandit (MAB) problem provides an abstraction for many real-world decision making problems such as sponsored-search auctions, crowd-sourcing, wireless communication, etc. In this work, ... -
Acyclic Edge Coloring Of Graphs
(2013-10-07)A proper edge coloring of G =(V,E)is a map c : E → C (where C is the set of available colors ) with c(e) ≠ c(ƒ) for any adjacent edges e,f. The minimum number of colors needed to properly color the edges of G, is called ... -
Adaptive Hierarchial RAID
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-08)Redundant Arrays of Inexpensive Disks or RAID is a popular method of improving the reliability and performance of disk storage. Of various levels of RAID, mirrored or RAID1 and rotating parity or RAID5 configurations have ... -
An Adaptive Recompilation Framework For Rotor And Architectural Support For Online Program Instrumentation
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-12-07)Although runtime systems and the dynamic compilation model have revolutionized the process of application development and deployment, the associated performance overheads continue to be a cause for concern and much research. ... -
Adaptive Selective Flooding Qos Routing
(Indian Institute of Science, 2005-02-08)The routing strategy used in today's Internet is best-effort service, where all data packets are treated equally. This type of service is not suited for applications such as video conferencing, and video on demand, that ... -
Algorithmic and Combinatorial Questions on Some Geometric Problems on Graphs
(2018-05-08)This thesis mainly focuses on algorithmic and combinatorial questions related to some geometric problems on graphs. In the last part of this thesis, a graph coloring problem is also discussed. Boxicity and Cubicity: These ... -
An Algorithmic Characterization Of Polynomial Functions Over Zpn
(2014-07-04)The problem of polynomial representability of functions is central to many branches of mathematics. If the underlying set is a finite field, every function can be represented as a polynomial. In this thesis we consider ... -

Algorithms for Challenges to Practical Reinforcement Learning
Reinforcement learning (RL) in real world applications faces major hurdles - the foremost being safety of the physical system controlled by the learning agent and the varying environment conditions in which the autonomous ... -
Algorithms For Efficient Implementation Of Secure Group Communication Systems
(2007-10-23)A distributed application may be considered as a set of nodes which are spread across the network, and need to communicate with each other. The design and implementation of these distributed applications is greatly simplified ... -
Algorithms for Fair Decision Making: Provable Guarantees and Applications
The topic of fair allocation of indivisible items has received significant attention because of its applicability in several real-world settings. This has led to a vast body of work focusing on defining appropriate fairness ... -
Algorithms for Product Pricing and Energy Allocation in Energy Harvesting Sensor Networks
(2018-05-09)In this thesis, we consider stochastic systems which arise in different real-world application contexts. The first problem we consider is based on product adoption and pricing. A monopolist selling a product has to appropriately ... -
Algorithms for Social Good in Online Platforms with Guarantees on Honest Participation and Fairness
Recent decades have seen a revolution in the way people communicate, buy products, learn new things, and share life experiences. This has spurred the growth of online platforms that enable users from all over the globe to ... -
Algorithms For Stochastic Games And Service Systems
(2014-04-23)This thesis is organized into two parts, one for my main area of research in the field of stochastic games, and the other for my contributions in the area of service systems. We first provide an abstract for my work in ... -
Algorithms for Stochastic Optimization, Statistical Estimation and Markov Decision Processes
Stochastic approximation deals with the problem of finding zeros of a function expressed as an expectation of a random variable. In this thesis we propose convergent algorithms for problems in optimization, statistical ... -
Analysing Message Sequence Graph Specifications
(2011-03-29)Message Sequence Charts are a visual representation of the system specification which shows how all the participating processes are interacting with each other. Message Sequence Graphs provide modularity by easily allowing ...
