In this paper we provide a fast, data-driven solution to the failing query problem: given a query that returns an empty answer, how can one relax the query's constraints so t...
Verification of chip multiprocessor memory systems remains challenging. While formal methods have been used to validate protocols, simulation is still the dominant method used to ...

The best known method to find exact or at least -approximate solutions to polynomial programming problems is the spatial Branch-and-Bound algorithm, which rests on computing lower...
We discuss and analyze the problem of finding a distribution that minimizes the relative entropy to a prior distribution while satisfying max-norm constraints with respect to an ...
Today XML is an essential technology for knowledge management within enterprises and dissemination of data over the Web. Therefore the efficient evaluation of XML queries has been ...
