Abstract. The important tasks in requirement engineering are resolving requirements inconsistencies between regulators and developers of safety-critical computer systems, and the v...
We develop a framework for the image segmentation problem based on a new graph-theoretic formulation of clustering. The approach is motivated by the analogies between the intuitiv...
Lookup services are used in many Internet applications to translate a key (e.g., a file name) into an associated set of entries (e.g., the location of file copies). The key look...
In this paper we adopt the geometric approach to the theory of evidence to study the geometric counterparts of the plausibility functions, or upper probabilities. The computation ...
A fundamental issue in the engineering of coordination models is n coordination abstractions that are correct with respect to the specification of the coordination model they imp...
