For noisy optimization problems, there is generally a trade-off between the effort spent to reduce the noise (in order to allow the optimization algorithm to run properly), and t...
Monte-Carlo evaluation consists in estimating a position by averaging the outcome of several random continuations, and can serve as an evaluation function at the leaves of a min-ma...
Abstract--In a cellular distributed antenna system (DAS), distributed antenna elements (AEs) are connected to the base station via an offline dedicated link, e.g. fiber optics or l...
In many database applications, there are opportunities for multiple top-N queries to be evaluated at the same time. Often it is more cost effective to evaluate multiple such queri...
Abstract. Internet coordinate systems appear promising as a method for estimating network distance without direct measurement, allowing scalable configuration of emerging applicat...
