Web services are rapidly emerging as a popular standard for sharing data and functionality among heterogeneous systems. We propose a general purpose Web Service Management System (...
We present a simple probabilistic algorithm for solving kSAT, and more generally, for solving constraint satisfaction problems (CSP). The algorithm follows a simple localsearch pa...
In this paper, we propose a receiver-cooperative bandwidth management method for layered multicast streams, considering not only bandwidth requirements but also receivers' pr...
A longstanding goal in planning research is the ability to generalize plans developed for some set of environments to a new but similar environment, with minimal or no replanning....

Landmarks for a planning problem are subgoals that are necessarily made true at some point in the execution of any plan. Since verifying that a fact is a landmark is PSPACE-complet...
