Topographic maps are a common support for geographical information because they have the particularity to portray the relief through a set of contour lines. This topographic featu...
We give an optimal dynamic programming algorithm to solve a class of finite-horizon decentralized Markov decision processes (MDPs). We consider problems with a broadcast informati...
Proportional data (normalized histograms) have been frequently occurring in various areas, and they could be mathematically abstracted as points residing in a geometric simplex. A...
The paper formulates and investigates the aggregation problem for synthesized mediators of Web services (SWMs). An SWM is a finite-state transducer defined in terms of templates...
This paper introduces a novel genetic algorithm strategy based on the reuse of chromosomes from previous generations in the creation of offspring individuals. A number of chromoso...
