Abstract. By simulating a real computer it is possible to gain a detailed knowledge of the cache memory utilization of an application, e.g., a partial differential equation (PDE) s...
Hidden Markov models hmms and partially observable Markov decision processes pomdps provide useful tools for modeling dynamical systems. They are particularly useful for represent...
Motivated by many applications, top-k query is a fundamental operation in modern database systems. Technological advances have enabled the deployment of large-scale sensor networks...
With standard assumptions the routing and wavelength assignment problem (RWA) can be viewed as a Markov Decision Process (MDP). The problem, however, defies an exact solution bec...
An ever-growing infrastructure, including existing and newly built power plants, as well as a rising environmental awareness in society call for inspection and maintenance systems...
