This paper considers strategies for external memory based optimal planning. An external breadth-first search exploration algorithm is devised that is guaranteed to find the costop...
Various problems in machine learning, databases, and statistics involve pairwise distances among a set of objects. It is often desirable for these distances to satisfy the propert...
Abstract. In this paper, we consider the aesthetic criteria and constraints related to the layouts of UML sequence diagrams. We consider the applicability of the traditional graph ...
