An algorithm for detecting scene changes in compressed video streams is proposed. The proposed algorithm directly exploits the motion compensation information and the prediction e...
Failure detectors (or, more accurately Failure Suspectors { FS) appear to be a fundamental service upon which to build fault-tolerant, distributed applications. This paper shows t...
The maintenance of large raster images under spatial operations is still a major performance bottleneck. For reasons of storage space, images in a collection, such as satellite pi...
Ada ‘95 does not provide for a constructor mechanism with parameters for initializing newly created objects. The package Ada.Finalization provides an initialize procedure which ...
In abductive planning, plans are constructed as reasons for an agent to act: plans are demonstrations in logical theory of action that a goal will result assuming that given actio...
