We investigate a class of path constraints that is of interest in connection with both semistructured and structured data. In standard database systems, constraints are typically ...
Stochastic local search (SLS) algorithms have been successfully applied to hard combinatorial problems from different domains. Due to their inherent randomness, the run-time behav...
A new parallel-type gripper mechanism is proposed in this work. This device has a parallelogramic platform that can be flexibly folded. Therefore, this mechanism not only can be u...
We investigate the application of multi-agent systems to develop intelligent information interfaces for connected communities, a class of computer applications aimed at enhancing ...
Abstract. The performance of shared-memory (OpenMP) implementations of three different PDE solver kernels representing finite difference methods, finite volume methods, and spectra...
