The objective of joint rate control is to dynamically distribute the channel capacity among video sequences according to their respective complexities, thus a more uniform picture...
Control systems running on a computer are subject to timing disturbances coming from implementation constraints. Fortunately closed-loop systems behave robustly w.r.t. modelling e...
This paper presents an XML-based approach to implementing the parametric model of temporal databases. In the parametric model, attribute values are functions of time and the entir...
Wikis are often implemented using string-based approaches to parse and generate their pages. While such approaches work well for simple wikis, they hamper the customization and ad...
We propose a new paradigm for software availability enhancement. We offer a two-step strategy: Failure prediction followed by maintenance actions with the objective of avoiding imp...
