We consider the classical finite-state discounted Markovian decision problem, and we introduce a new policy iteration-like algorithm for finding the optimal state costs or Q-facto...
We consider an isolated system of N immiscible fluids, each following a stiffened-gas equation of state. We consider the problem of calculating equilibrium states from the conser...
Secure software engineering is a new research area that has been proposed to address security issues during the development of software systems. This new area of research advocates...
Markovian process algebras, such as PEPA and stochastic -calculus, bring a powerful compositional approach to the performance modelling of complex systems. However, the models gen...
Scalability is said to be one of the major advantages brought by the cloud paradigm and, more specifically, the one that makes it different to an “advanced outsourcing” solu...
