The data volume of XML repositories and the response time of query processing have become critical issues for many applications, especially for those in the Web. An interesting alt...
Both genetic algorithms (GAs) and temporal difference (TD) methods have proven effective at solving reinforcement learning (RL) problems. However, since few rigorous empirical com...
We present two approaches to the problem of calculating a cell in a 3-dimensional arrangement of quadrics. The first approach solves the problem using rational arithmetic. It work...
Many high-level parallel programming languages allow for fine-grained parallelism. As in the popular work-time framework for parallel algorithm design, programs written in such lan...
Recently, power has emerged as a critical factor in designing components of storage systems, especially for power-hungry data centers. While there is some research into power-awar...
