Abstract-- This paper introduces a deterministic approximation algorithm with error guarantees for computing the probability of propositional formulas over discrete random variable...
It has been theoretically shown that performing coding in networked systems, including Reed-Solomon codes, fountain codes, and random network coding, has a clear advantage with re...
If the model of free-form queries, which has proved successful for HTML based search on the Web, is made available for Grid services, it will serve as a powerful tool for scientis...
— We present heuristic algorithms for pruning large sets of candidate paths or trajectories down to smaller subsets that maintain desirable characteristics in terms of overall re...
