One of the difficulties to adapt MDPs for the control of cooperative multi-agent systems, is the complexity issued from Decentralized MDPs. Moreover, existing approaches can not ...
The major purpose of the design of distributed databases is to improve system performance and to increase system reliability. Fragmentation and allocation play important roles in t...
We study the behavior of the classical A∗ search algorithm when coupled with a heuristic that provides estimates, accurate to within a small multiplicative factor, of the distan...
The aggregated structure of documents plays a key role in full-text, multimedia, and network Information Retrieval (IR). Considering aggregation provides new querying facilities a...
Functional verification of complex designs largely relies on the use of simulation in conjunction high-level verification languages (HVL) and test-bench automation (TBA) tools. In...
