Wireless sensor networks have enormous potential to aid data collection in a number of areas, such as environmental and wildlife research. In this paper, we address the challenges...
We present a hybrid algorithm for distributed task allocation problem in a cooperative logistics domain. Our approach aims to achieve superior computational performance by combinin...
We consider the fundamental operation of applying a conjunction of selection conditions to a set of records. With large main memories available cheaply, systems may choose to keep...
Text search engines return a set of k documents ranked by similarity to a query. Typically, documents and queries are drawn from natural language text, which can readily be partiti...
