This paper describes and analyzes sporadic model building, which can be used to enhance the efficiency of the hierarchical Bayesian optimization algorithm (hBOA) and other advance...
— Energy efficient operation is of paramount importance for battery-powered wireless nodes. In an effort to conserve energy, standard protocols for WLANs have the provision for w...
We consider the following "efficiently decodable" nonadaptive group testing problem. There is an unknown string x {0, 1}n with at most d ones in it. We are allowed to t...
As multithreaded server applications and runtime systems prevail, garbage collection is becoming an essential feature to support high performance systems. The fundamental issue of...
Motion planning for mobile agents, such as robots, acting in the physical world is a challenging task, which traditionally concerns safe obstacle avoidance. We are interested in p...
