— Many architectures have been proposed to solve tightly-coupled multirobot tasks (MT) through coalitions of heterogeneous robots. However, several issues remain unaddressed. As ...
Given a certain function f, various methods have been proposed in the past for addressing the important problem of computing the matrix-vector product f(A)b without explicitly comp...
When the workflow application is executed in Service-Oriented Grid (SOG), performance issues such as service scheduling should be considered, to achieve high and stable performance...
In this paper, we reveal a common deficiency of the current retrieval models: the component of term frequency (TF) normalization by document length is not lower-bounded properly;...
In a public cloud, bandwidth is traditionally priced in a pay-asyou-go model. Reflecting the recent trend of augmenting cloud computing with bandwidth guarantees, we consider a n...
