— We consider the problem of optimal control in continuous and partially observable environments when the parameters of the model are not known exactly. Partially Observable Mark...
The success of sensor-driven applications is reliant on whether a steady stream of data can be provided by the underlying system. This need, however, poses great challenges to sen...
In this paper, we study replication techniques for scaling and continuous operation for a dynamic content server. Our focus is on supporting transparent and fast reconfiguration ...
A variety of real-world applications share the property that data arrives in form of transient streams. Data stream management systems (DSMS) provide convenient solutions to the p...
