We consider Markov decision processes and 2-player graph games, both of the deterministic and probabilistic varieties. We characterize when memory and/or randomization are required for winning with respect to various classes of w-regular objectives, noting particularly when the use of memory can be traded for the use of randomization. In particular, we show that Markov decision processes allow randomized memoryless optimal strategies for all M?ller objectives. Furthermore, we show that 2-player probabilistic graph games allow randomized memoryless strategies for winning with probability 1 those M?ller objectives which are upward-closed. Upward-closure means that if a set α of infinitely repeating vertices is winning, then all supersets of α are also winning.","lang":"eng"}],"author":[{"first_name":"Krishnendu","orcid":"0000-0002-4561-241X","last_name":"Chatterjee","full_name":"Krishnendu Chatterjee","id":"2E5DCA20-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87"},{"last_name":"De Alfaro","first_name":"Luca","full_name":"de Alfaro, Luca"},{"last_name":"Henzinger","orcid":"0000−0002−2985−7724","first_name":"Thomas A","id":"40876CD8-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","full_name":"Thomas Henzinger"}],"conference":{"name":"QEST: Quantitative Evaluation of Systems"},"date_created":"2018-12-11T12:09:27Z","status":"public","publication_status":"published","page":"206 - 217","doi":"10.1109/QEST.2004.10051","type":"conference","_id":"4555","citation":{"chicago":"Chatterjee, Krishnendu, Luca De Alfaro, and Thomas A Henzinger. “Trading Memory for Randomness,” 206–17.
