Abstract. In this work we investigate several issues in order to improve the performance of probabilistic estimation trees (PETs). First, we derive a new probability smoothing that...
Significant research efforts have recently been dedicated to modeling and querying uncertain data. In this paper, we focus on skyline analysis of uncertain data, modeled as uncert...
Numerical possibility theory, belief function have been suggested as useful tools to represent imprecise, vague or incomplete information. They are particularly appropriate in unc...
In this paper, we consider the problem of supporting fault tolerance for adaptive and time-critical applications in heterogeneous and unreliable grid computing environments. Our g...
Several variations of rooted tree based solutions have been recently proposed for member revocation in multicast communications [18, 19, 20, 21]. In this paper, we show that by ass...
