Abstract: This paper introduces a new method for optimally provisioning and pricing differentiated services, that maximizes profit and maintains a small blocking probability. Reso...
Kernel methods provide an efficient mechanism to derive nonlinear algorithms. In classification problems as well as in feature extraction, kernel-based approaches map the original...
An important practical problem in fault diagnosis is discriminating between permanent faults and transient faults. In many computer systems, the majority of errors are due to tran...
