The goal of this article is to formalize Object Role Modeling (ORM) using the DLR description logic. This would enable automated reasoning on the formal properties of ORM diagrams,...
We define the class of SMART scheduling policies. These are policies that bias towards jobs with small remaining service times, jobs with small original sizes, or both, with the ...

We introduce the distributed gradient clock synchronization problem. As in traditional distributed clock synchronization, we consider a network of nodes equipped with hardware clo...
Dimensional reduction is a simplification technique that eliminates one or more dimensions from a boundary value problem. It results in significant computational savings with mini...
The use of genotypic populations is necessary for adaptation in Evolutionary Algorithms. We use a technique called form-invariant commutation to study the immediate effect of evol...
