In this work, we address investment decisions in production systems by using real options. As is standard in literature, the stochastic variable is assumed to be normally distribu...
We are interested in the challenging scientific pursuit of how to characterize human activities in any formal meeting situation by tracking people’s positions with a computer vi...
An auditory "scene", composed of overlapping acoustic sources, can be viewed as a complex object whose constituent parts are the individual sources. Pitch is known to be...
Data caches are essential in modern processors, bridging the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they yield very complex performance models, which make...
