Exhaustive model checking search techniques are ineffective for error discovery in large and complex multi-threaded software systems. Distance estimate heuristics guide the concre...
This paper motivates the need for more research to ensure a consistent level of reliability in software systems. We briefly outline the relevant developments that drive this need...
— Mercator is a program that uses hop-limited probes—the same primitive used in traceroute—to infer an Internet map. It uses informed random address probing to carefully expl...
Background: Agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) is a common unsupervised data analysis technique used in several biological applications. Standard AHC methods require that...
This paper introduces the wave model, a novel approach on analyzing the behavior of GAs. Our aim is to give techniques that have practical relevance and provide tools for improvin...
