One of the major bottlenecks in conceptual engineering design is the pure amount of design information which the design engineer needs to take into consideration. Furthermore, the ...
Content-Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has become one of the most active research areas in the past few years. Many visual feature representations have been explored and many system...
Optimizing a semiconductor wafer fab requires balancing technology and productivity. Recent work on productivity modeling will be described and focus on discrete event simulation ...
The problem of searching for important factors in a simulation model is considered when the simulation output is subject to stochastic variation. Bettonvil and Kleijnen (1996) giv...
Recent evidence suggests that some characteristics of computer and telecommunications systems may be well described using heavy tailed distributions — distributions whose tail d...
