The examination scheduling problem has been examined and a four-phase system using a tabu search algorithm, OTTABU, has been implemented. This system uses both recency-based short-...
Traditional information systems return answers after a user submits a complete query. Users often feel "left in the dark" when they have limited knowledge about the unde...
Information retrieval systems can be partitioned into two main classes: large-scale systems that make use of an inverted index or some other auxiliary data structure, intended for...
— In this paper we show how Grid computing can be used to improve the operation of a medical image search system. The paper introduces the basic principles of a content-based ima...
Many problems in high assurance systems design are only tractable using computationally expensive search algorithms. For these algorithms to be useful, designers must be provided ...
