Natural fractured media are highly unpredictable because of existing complex structures at the fracture and at the network levels. Fractures are by themselves heterogeneous objects...
Background: To study complex biochemical reaction networks in living cells researchers more and more rely on databases and computational methods. In order to facilitate computatio...
Distributed storage systems employ replicas or erasure code to ensure high reliability and availability of data. Such replicas create great amount of network traffic that negative...
Aggressive scaling increases the number of devices we can integrate per square millimeter but makes it increasingly difficult to guarantee that each device fabricated has the inte...
Dynamic plan execution strategies allow an autonomous agent to respond to uncertainties while improving robustness and reducing the need for an overly conservative plan. Executive...
