: In many application areas like e-science and data-warehousing detailed information about the origin of data is required. This kind of information is often referred to as data pro...
The embedded real-time software systems encountered in applications such as telecommunications, aerospace, and defense typically tend to be large and extremely complex. It is cruc...
Many software process methods and tools presuppose the existence of a formal model of a process. Unfortunately, developing a formal model for an on-going, complex process can be d...
Hierarchical models have been extensively studied in various domains. However, existing models assume fixed model structures or incorporate structural uncertainty generatively. In...
Distance function computation is a key subtask in many data mining algorithms and applications. The most effective form of the distance function can only be expressed in the conte...
