In this paper we propose an attention-based vision system for the JAST interactive dialog robot. The robotic vision system incorporates three submodules: object recognition, gestu...
Currently the key problems of query optimization are extensibility imposed by object-relational technology, as well as query complexity caused by forthcoming applications, such as...
We report on initial experiments in tree locking schemes for compiled database applications. Such applications have a repository style of architecture in which a collection of sof...
Systems such as adaptative and context–aware ones must adapt themselves to changing requirements at runtime. Modeling and implementing this kind of systems is a difficult opera...
