Abstract We present an extensible encoding of object-oriented data models into higherorder logic (HOL). Our encoding is supported by a datatype package that leverages the use of th...
In order to successfully deploy multicast services in QoS-aware networks, pricing architectures must take into account the particular characteristics of multicast sessions. With t...
We prove an optimal generalization of the centerpoint theorem: given a set P of n points in the plane, there exist two points (not necessarily among input points) that hit all con...
We describe a design for a collaborative Virtual Learning Environment (VLE) to support massively multi-user and multi-institutional learning communities. This architecture extends...
DIRECT (DIviding RECTangles) is a deterministic global optimization algorithm for bound-constrained problems. The algorithm, based on a space-partitioning scheme, performs both gl...
