In this study we present a scheme called two-dimensional BubbleUp (2DB) for managing parallel disks in a multimedia server. Its goal is to reduce initial latency for interactive m...
We define TTD-MDPs, a novel class of Markov decision processes where the traditional goal of an agent is changed from finding an optimal trajectory through a state space to realiz...

This paper demonstrates that work in digital enterprises—like work in conventional enterprises— can be carried out effectively by autonomous agents, subject to a regulatory r...
Conventional conversational recommender systems support interaction strategies that are hard-coded into the system in advance. In this context, Reinforcement Learning techniques h...
Abstract. We introduce an ambient-based calculus that combines ambient mobility with process mobility, uses group names to collect ambients with homologous features, and exploits c...
