We propose a set of new algorithms based on stochastic localization methods for large-scale discrete simulation optimization problems with convexity structure. All proposed algorithms, with the general idea of "localizing" potential good solutions to an adaptively shrinking subset, are...

In real-time decision-making problems for complicated stochastic systems, a covariate that reflects the state of the system is observed in real time and a state-dependent decision needs to be made immediately to optimize some system performance. Such system performances, for complicated...
