In this paper we introduce three alternative combinatorial formulations of the theory of evidence (ToE), by proving that both plausibility and commonality functions share the stru...
Abstract. This paper presents a framework for reasoning about the security of confidential data within software systems. A novelty is that we use Hoare and He's Unifying Theor...
We study the partitioning of temporal planning problems formulated as mixed-integer nonlinear programming problems, develop methods to reduce the search space of partitioned subpr...
The celebrated PageRank algorithm has proved to be a very effective paradigm for ranking results of web search algorithms. In this paper we refine this basic paradigm to take into...
—The implementation of distributed network utility maximization (NUM) algorithms hinges heavily on information feedback through message passing among network elements. In practic...
