The efficient execution of integration processes between distributed, heterogeneous data sources and applications is a challenging research area of data management. These inn proc...
As many real-world problems involve user preferences, costs, or probabilities, constraint satisfaction has been extended to optimization by generalizing hard constraints to soft co...
We consider a distributed system that disseminates highvolume event streams to many simultaneous monitoring applications over a low-bandwidth network. For bandwidth efficiency, we...
The results of the latest International Probabilistic Planning Competition (IPPC-2008) indicate that the presence of dead ends, states with no trajectory to the goal, makes MDPs h...
Increasing applications are demanding effective and efficient support to perform retrieval in large collections of digital images. The work presented here is an early stage resear...
