In this paper we study monotonicity results for optimal policies of various queueing and resource sharing models. The standard approach is to propagate, for each specific model, ...
We study two classes of view update problems in relational databases. We are given a source database S, a monotone query Q, and the view Q(S) generated by the query. The first pro...
Building adaptive constraint solvers is a major challenge in constraint programming. An important line of research towards this goal is concerned with ways to dynamically adapt th...
Weakly consistent replication of data has become increasingly important both for loosely-coupled collections of personal devices and for large-scale infrastructure services. Unfor...

A modification of the cascaded detector with the AdaBoost trained stage classifiers is proposed and brought to bear on the face detection problem. The cascaded detector is a seque...
