The inertia of an n × n matrix A is defined as the triple (i+(A), i−(A), i0(A)), where i+(A), i−(A), and i0(A) are the number of eigenvalues of A, counting multiplicities, w...
This paper explores end-user sensor installation for domestic ubiquitous computing applications and proposes five design principles to support this task. End-user sensor installati...
Frequently, it is observed that the sequence of indexes generated by a vector quantizer (VQ) contains a high degree of correlation, and, therefore, can be further compressed using ...
Finite state transducers (FSTs) are finite state machines that map strings in a source domain into strings in a target domain. While there are many reports in the literature of ev...
In this paper, we are going to show how to build up agentoriented Public Key Infrastructure(PKI) from SPKI/SDSI and X.509 standards. A variety of delegation mechanisms for agents ...
