Abstract: Although a quantum state requires exponentially many classical bits to describe, the laws of quantum mechanics impose severe restrictions on how that state can be accesse...
The resource-constrained elementary shortest path problem arises as a pricing subproblem in branch-and-price algorithms for vehicle routing problems with additional constraints. W...
Extract-Transform-Load (ETL) processes play an important role in data warehousing. Typically, design work on ETL has focused on performance as the sole metric to make sure that the...

We present a novel stochastic, adaptive strategy for tracking multiple people in a large network of video cameras. Similarities between features (appearance and biometrics) observ...
This paper reports how and to what extent the mass distribution of a passive dynamic walker can be tuned to maximize walking speed and stability. An exploration of the complete pa...
