The IPACS-project (Integrated Performance Analysis of Computer Systems) was founded by the Federal Department of Education, Science, Research and Technology (BMBF) in the program ...
We introduce a new algorithm based on linear programming that approximates the differential value function of an average-cost Markov decision process via a linear combination of p...
Most work on AI planning has focused on the development of fully automated methods for generating plans that satisfy user-speci ed goals. However, users in many domains want the a...
Here we describe Pelendur, a system for the management of common system operation tasks. Specifically, Pelendur focuses on the management of user accounts and related information ...
Based on the notion of event-based behavioral abstraction EBBA we specify properties of object-oriented distributed systems in linear time temporal logic. These properties are the...
