This paper focuses on two problems related to QoS-aware I/O server placement in hierarchical Grid environments. Given a hierarchical network with requests from clients, the network...
We present a new algorithm for conformant probabilistic planning, which for a given horizon produces a plan that maximizes the probability of success under quantified uncertainty ...
Rectangle (square) packing problems involve packing all squares with sizes 1 × 1 to n × n into the minimum area enclosing rectangle (respectively, square). Rectangle packing is a...
We describe an innovative solution to the problem of scheduling astronomy observations for the Stratospheric Observatory for Infrared Astronomy, an airborne observatory. The probl...
The search for unknown frequent pattern is one of the core activities in many time series data mining processes. In this paper we present an extension of the pattern discovery pro...
