This paper considers strategies for external memory based optimal planning. An external breadth-first search exploration algorithm is devised that is guaranteed to find the costop...
This work introduces a combinatorial optimization problem called Mars Express Memory Dumping Problem (Mex-Mdp), which arises in the European Space Agency program Mars Express. It c...
In the past decade, processor speed has become significantly faster than memory speed. Small, fast cache memories are designed to overcome this discrepancy, but they are only effe...
Software transactional memory systems enable a programmer to easily write concurrent data structures such as lists, trees, hashtables, and graphs, where non-conflicting operation...
A new stochastic method for locating the global minimum of a multidimensional function inside a rectangular hyperbox is presented. A sampling technique is employed that makes use ...
