We are concerned with the use of Mobile Agents for information retrieval. A multi-agent system is considered; a number of agents are involved in a collective effort to retrieve di...
-- This paper presents an efficient method for the timing verification of concurrent systems, modeled as labeled Timed Petri nets. The verification problems we consider require us ...
We propose a method to find candidate 2D articulated model configurations by searching for locally optimal configurations under a weak but computationally manageable fitness functi...
Abstract. In concurrent database systems, correctness of update transactions refers to the equivalent effects of the execution schedule and some serial schedule over the same set o...
The fundamental operation of dominance testing, i.e., determining if one alternative is preferred to another, is in general very hard for methods of reasoning with qualitative cond...
