We provide a worst-case analysis of selective sampling algorithms for learning linear threshold functions. The algorithms considered in this paper are Perceptron-like algorithms, ...
Consider an asynchronous system where each process begins with an arbitrary real value. Given some fixed > 0, an approximate agreement algorithm must have all non-faulty process...
We investigate factors that impact the effectiveness of caching to speed up discrete event simulation. Walsh and Sirer have shown that a variant of function caching (staged simula...
Web Services are an emerging software technology that employ XML to share and exchange data. They may serve as wrappers for legacy data sources, integrate multiple remote data sou...
Classically, software deployment is a process consisting of building the software, packaging it for distribution, and installing it at the target site. This approach has two proble...
