The eld of theory update has seen some improvement, in what regards updating, by allowing desired updates to be speci ed by update programs. The updating of models is governed by ...
We study how to efficiently diffuse updates to a large distributed system of data replicas, some of which may exhibit arbitrary (Byzantine) failures. We assume that strictly fewer...
Abstract. We present an approach to agents that can reason, react to the environment and are able to update their own knowledge as a result of new incoming information. Each agents...
On-the-fly replacement of software may require simultanous distributed updates of components. If an update changes some interfaces or protocols, the update must be performed in a...
We study the problem of update propagation across views in the setting where both the view and the source database are XML documents. We consider a simple class of XML views that ...

In this paper, we address the problem of incrementally maintaining a histogram in response to a non-stationary update process. In relational database systems, this problem can occ...
Changing demands, software evolution, and bug fixes require the possibility to update applications as well as system software of embedded devices. Systems that perform updates of ...
Online update is a technique that reduces the disruption caused by a software update. It does so by applying a patch to a running process as opposed to shutting down the process a...
