Scientific data in the life sciences is distributed over various independent multi-format databases and is constantly expanding. We discuss a scenario where a life science research...
— We consider a queueing system with controllable service rate; for example, a transmitter whose rate can be controlled by varying the transmission power. For such a system we ob...
Genetic Algorithms are very powerful search methods that are used in different optimization problems. Parallel versions of genetic algorithms are easily implemented and usually in...
We consider the problem of selecting a subset of p out of n sensors for the purpose of event detection, in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Occurrence or not of the event of intere...
This paper introduces propagator groups as an abstraction for controlling the execution of propagators as implementations of constraints. Propagator groups enable users of a constr...
