We review key challenges of developing spoken dialog systems that can engage in interactions with one or multiple participants in relatively unconstrained environments. We outline...
A case study of performance and dependability evaluation of fault-tolerant multiprocessors is presented. Two specific architectures are analyzed taking into account system functio...
Abstract. In component-based programming, the programmer assembles applications from prefabricated components. The assembly process has two main steps: adapting a component by twea...
—This paper addresses, from a probabilistic point of view, the issue of switching activity estimation in combinational circuits under the zero-delay model. As the main theoretica...
—Integration of heterogeneous information becomes again a requirement with the emergence of large-scale distributed applications such as Web-Services based Applications. Enterpri...
