This paper establishes a two-phase model to explore the financial risk of construction project under uncertain construction duration. Treated as a random variable in the model, th...
Causal models defined in terms of a collection of equations, as defined by Pearl, are axiomatized here. Axiomatizations are provided for three successively more general classes of...
Prototyping is a technique widely used in many engineering fields. However, in software engineering, its usage is limited to requirement elicitation. Little research has been done ...
: This paper addresses the problem of computing minimum risk paths by taking as objective the expected accident cost. The computation is based on a dynamic programming formulation ...
In this paper, we introduce a novel medium access control (MAC) protocol for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) systems. This protocol exploits the Markov Chain Model of Slotted...
