Network, web, and disk I/O traffic are usually bursty, self-similar [9, 3, 5, 6] and therefore can not be modeled adequately with Poisson arrivals[9]. However, we do want to model...

Model checking and other finite-state analysis techniques have been very successful when used with hardware systems and less successful with software systems. It is especially di...
Background: The statistical modeling of biomedical corpora could yield integrated, coarse-to-fine views of biological phenomena that complement discoveries made from analysis of m...

In order to support verification, validation and analysis of dynamic Operations Research (OR) models a method of testing models against data is required. In the case of the QCM qu...
