In this paper we show that the power of using k-consistency techniques in a constraint problem is precisely captured by using a particular inference rule, which we call positive-hy...
The general problem of defining and determining the sample distribution in the case of continuousparameter random fields, is addressed. Defining a distribution in the case of d...
The lack of a flexible consistency management solution hinders P2P implementation of applications involving updates, such as read-write file sharing, directory services, online ...
A real-time database is composed of real-time objects whose values remain valid only within their validity intervals. Each object in the database models a real world entity. The f...
Software code caches are becoming ubiquitous, in dynamic optimizers, runtime tool platforms, dynamic translators, fast simulators and emulators, and dynamic compilers. Caching fre...
