The algorithmic framework developed for improving heuristic solutions of the new version of deterministic TSP [Choi et al., 2002] is extended to the stochastic case. To verify the...
Protocol and system designers use verification techniques to analyze a system's correctness properties. Network operators need verification techniques to ensure the "cor...
We adopt the decision-theoretic principle of expected utility maximization as a paradigm for designing autonomous rational agents, and present a framework that uses this paradigm t...
Processor and memory technology trends portend a continual increase in the relative cost of accessing main memory. Machine designers have tried to mitigate the effect of this tren...
The successful deployment of next-generation distributed multimedia systems is signi cantly dependent on the e cient management support that improves the performance and the relia...
