Abstract | Optimization of the mean completion time of random processes by restart is a subject of active theoretical research in statistical physics and has long found practical application in computer science. Meanwhile, one of the key issues remains largely unsolved: how to construct a restart strategy for a process whose detailed statistics are unknown to ensure that the expected completion time will reduce? Addressing this query here we propose several constructive criteria for the effectiveness of various protocols of noninstantaneous restart in the mean completion time problem and in the success probability problem. Being expressed in terms of a small number of easily estimated statistical characteristics of the original process (MAD, median completion time, low-order statistical moments of completion time), these criteria allow informed restart decision based on partial information. |
