Context-awareness is a key issue in pervasive computing. Context-aware applications are prone to the context consistency problem, where applications are confronted with conflictin...
A general and expressive model of sequential decision making under uncertainty is provided by the Markov decision processes (MDPs) framework. Complex applications with very large ...
We reinvestigate the oblivious RAM concept introduced by Goldreich and Ostrovsky, which enables a client, that can store locally only a constant amount of data, to store remotely ...
We present a novel Object Recognition approach based on affine invariant regions. It actively counters the problems related to the limited repeatability of the region detectors, an...
