A technique for estimating the cost of executing a loop nest in parallel (parallel start-up overhead) is described in this paper. This technique is of utmost importance for paralle...
Using a glass-box theory of finite domain constraints, FD, we show how the entailment of user-defined constraints can be expressed by antimonotone FD constraints. We also provide a...
Abstract. SharedPlans is an agent teamwork model that provides a formalization of the conditions under which a group of agents has a collaborative plan. This paper describes a gene...
We describe an incomplete but sound and efficient livelock freedom test for infinite state asynchronous reactive systems. The method s a system into a set of simple control flow cy...
Abstract. Greedy machine learning algorithms suffer from shortsightedness, potentially returning suboptimal models due to limited exploration of the search space. Greedy search mis...
