Autonomic Management capabilities become increasingly important for attaining functional and quality goals in software systems. Nonetheless, successful Autonomic Management soluti...
With the goal to generate more scalable algorithms with higher efficiency and fewer open parameters, reinforcement learning (RL) has recently moved towards combining classical tec...
SQL extensions that allow queries to explicitly specify data quality requirements in terms of currency and consistency were proposed in an earlier paper. This paper develops a dat...
This paper presents a revised rate control scheme based on an improved frame complexity measure. Rate control adopted by both MPEG-4 VM18 and H.264/AVC use a quadratic rate-distor...
The recent non-uniform subdivision approach extends traditional uniform subdivision schemes with variable rules, offering additional shape parameters (such as knot spacings) for f...
