Middleware technologies such as Web Services, CORBA and DCOM have been very successful in solving distributed computing problems for a large family of application domains. As midd...
The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
In this paper, we propose the Pyramid-Technique, a new indexing method for high-dimensional data spaces. The PyramidTechnique is highly adapted to range query processing using the...
One of the most general frameworks for phrasing control problems for complex, redundant robots is operational space control. However, while this framework is of essential importan...
Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) have been applied with success to many numerical and combinatorial optimization problems in recent years. However, they often lose their effectivenes...
