We describe a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)-based algorithm for sampling solutions to mixed Boolean/integer constraint problems. The focus of this work differs in two points from...
In parallel computing environments such as HPC clusters and the Grid, data-intensive applications involve large overhead costs due to a concentration of access to the files on co...
—The importance of introducing distance constraints to data dependencies, such as differential dependencies (DDs) [28], has recently been recognized. The metric distance constrai...
A major requirement in Software Engineering is to reduce the time to market. This requirement along with a demand for product sophistication and better quality has led to larger te...
Application systems in the earth observation area can be characterised as distributed, platform-inhomogeneous, complex, and cost intensive information systems. In order to manage t...
