We present a probabilistic algorithm that, given a connected graph G (represented by adjacency lists) of average degree d, with edge weights in the set {1, . . . , w}, and given a ...
Abstract—This paper presents a model and theory for streaming layered video. We model the bandwidth available to the streaming application as a stochastic process whose statistic...
Assessing the reliability of a software system has always been an elusive target. A program may work very well for a number of years and this same program may suddenly become quit...
Abstract. In this paper we present a new modelling approach for dependability evaluation and sensitivity analysis of Scheduled Maintenance Systems, based on a Deterministic and Sto...
In this paper we describe SINERGY, which is a highly parallelizable, linear planning system that is based on the genetic programming paradigm. Rather than reasoning about the world...
