In many Web search applications, similarities between objects of one type (say, queries) can be affected by the similarities between their interrelated objects of another type (sa...
In this paper we propose computationally simple, pointwise formulas for extended t-norms and t-conorms on fuzzy truth values. The complex convolutions of the extended operations a...
We present a general method for computing lower bounds for various caching problems. We apply the method to two well known problems, companion caching and weighted caching. For we...
The search algorithm presented allows the CDF of a dependent variable to be bounded with 100%confidence,andallowsforaguaranteedevaluationof theerror involved.Thesereliabilitybound...
This paper shows how the steady-state availability and failure frequency can be calculated in a single pass for very large systems, when the availability is expressed as a product...
