Abstract. Motivated by the analogies to statistical physics, the deterministic annealing (DA) method has successfully been demonstrated in a variety of application. In this paper, ...
Evaluating a query can involve manipulation of large volumes of temporary data. When the volume of data becomes too great, activities such as joins and sorting must use disk, and ...
—When building software systems, developers have to weigh the benefits of using one specific solution approach against the risks and costs of using another one. This process is...
—The growing trend towards using component based design approach in embedded system development requires addressing newer system engineering challenges. These systems are usually...
Recently, a new approach to the symbolic model checking of timed automata based on a partial order semantics was introduced, which relies on event zones that use vectors of event o...
