This paper addresses the design and implementation of an adaptive document version management scheme. Existing schemes typically assume: (i) a priori expectations for how versions ...
Abstract. We present a parameterized approximation scheme for distributed combinatorial optimization problems based on dynamic programming. The algorithm is a utility propagation m...
Abstract. We present an algorithmic framework for integrating solution methods that is based on search, inference, and relaxation and their interactions. We show that the following...
Abstract. This position paper introduces the motivation and preliminary implementation issues of a distributed simulation middleware designed to increase the performance and speed-...
Pervasive computing calls for suitable middleware and programming models to deal with large software systems dived in dynamic mobile network environments. Here we present the prog...
