Trust has, since the early stages of IBM's Autonomic Computing (AC) initiative, been recognized as an important factor in the success of new autonomic features. If operators ...
Classical planning algorithms require that their operators be simple in order for planning to be tractable. However, the complexities of real world domains suggest that, in order ...
Distributed stream query services must simultaneously process a large number of complex, continuous queries with stringent performance requirements while utilizing distributed pro...

We study different types of aggregation operators. We focus on the generalized OWA (GOWA) operator developed by Yager which represents a generalization to a wide range of aggregat...
In this paper we explore a class of belief update operators, in which the definition of the operator is compositional with respect to the sentence to be added. The goal is to pro...

This paper proposes a new smart crossover operator for a Pittsburgh Learning Classifier System. This operator, unlike other recent LCS approaches of smart recombination, does not ...
Abstract. This work presents scale invariant region detectors that apply evolved operators to extract an interest measure. We evaluate operators using their repeatability rate, and...
Fielding robots in complex applications can stress the human operators responsible for supervising them, particularly because the operators might understand the applications but n...
The paper investigates the characterisation of vague concepts within the framework of modal logic. This work builds on the supervaluation approach of Fine and exploits the idea of...
: In an extensible database system, evaluation of a query plan is done in cooperation between a collection of operator implementation functions and a component of the DBMS that we ...
