This paper argues that basing the semantics of concurrent systems on the notions of state and state transitions is neither advisable nor necessary. The tendency to do this is deepl...
In this paper we set the first steps towards the development of a commercially viable tool that uses evolutionary computation to address the Product to Shelf Allocation Problem (P...
This paper addresses the problem of protecting the data carried by mobile agents from the possible attacks of malicious execution hosts. Specifically, we consider protection mecha...
A convex polytope P can be speci ed in two ways: as the convex hull of the vertex set V of P, or as the intersection of the set H of its facet-inducing halfspaces. The vertex enum...
