We describe a program, BEATRIX, that can understand textbook physics problems specified by a combination of English text and a diagram. The result of the understanding process is ...
It has been shown that network coding can lead to significant improvement in network capacity and reduction in power consumption for multicast traffic in wireless networks. In this...
We adapt the competitive location model based on maximal covering to include the knowledge that a competitor will enter the market later with a single new facility. The objective ...
