Users increasingly rely on their mobile devices to search local entities, typically businesses, while on the go. Even though recent work has recognized that the ranking signals in...
The global search properties of heuristic search algorithms are not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a new metric, mobility, that quantifies the dispersion of local o...

The development of successful metaheuristic algorithms such as local search for a difficult problems such as satisfiability testing (SAT) is a challenging task. We investigate an ...
Abstract. Life science data sources represent a complex link-driven federation of publicly available Web accessible sources. A fundamental need for scientists today is the ability ...
