We study economic means to improve network performance in the well-known game theoretic traffic model due to Wardrop. We introduce two sorts of spam flow - auxiliary and adversari...
Instruction scheduling is an important step for improving the performance of object code produced by a compiler. A fundamental problem that arises in instruction scheduling is to ...

When a large amount of data are missing, or when multiple hidden nodes exist, learning parameters in Bayesian networks (BNs) becomes extremely difficult. This paper presents a lea...
A substantial part of the database research field focusses on optimizing XQuery evaluation. However, optimization techniques are rarely validated by means of cross platform bench...
