in an abstract Cartesian space of program versions characterized by dialect variables. An optimal solution to the problem is derived based on its translation to a restricted Intege...
Abstract--In this paper, we study moments of soft bits of binary-input symmetric-output channels and solve some extremal problems of the moments. We use these results to solve the ...

We consider the problem of maximizing the reliability of a series-parallel system given cost and weight constraints on the system. The number of components in each subsystem and th...
A new scheme for sinusoidal audio coding named multiple description spherical trellis-coded quantization is proposed and analytic expressions for the point densities and expected d...
This paper describes an application of recently developed qualitative reasoning techniques to complex, socio{economic allocation problems. We explain why we believe traditional op...
