XML data projection (or pruning) is one of the main optimization techniques recently adopted in the context of main-memory XML query-engines. The underlying idea is quite simple: ...
Previously, idempotent methods have been found to be extremely fast for solution of dynamic programming equations associated with deterministic control problems. The original meth...
Many problems in vision involve the prediction of a class label for each frame in an unsegmented sequence. In this paper, we develop a discriminative framework for simultaneous se...
We propose a set of metrics for measuring the semantic implications of changes during ontology evolution. Our metrics focus on the changes of classes and associated axioms or annot...
We present several locking synchronization protocols and associated schedulability conditions for Pfair-scheduled multiprocessor systems. We focus on two classes of protocols. The...
