Abstract When applied to a stochastic process of interest, restart protocol alters the overall statistical distribution process’ completion time; thus, completion-time’s mean and randomness change. The explicit effect on is well understood, it known that: from perspective, deterministic protocols—termed sharp —can out-perform any other protocol. However, little randomness. This paper second in ...

Abstract Restart has the potential of expediting or impeding completion times general random processes. Consequently, issue mean-performance takes center stage: quantifying how application restart on a process interest impacts its completion-time’s mean. Going beyond mean, little is known affects stochasticity measures time. This paper first in duo studies that address this knowledge gap via: c...
