In the paper we establish the xed-parameter complexity for several parameterized decision problems involving models, supported models and stable models of logic programs. We also e...
This paper presents a surface segmentation method which uses a simulated inflating balloon model to segment surface structure from volumetric data using a triangular mesh. The mod...
the problem of locating services in a given context requires a methematical abstraction so that its complexity can be managed by means of an iterative search through context simul...
Simulation optimization (SO) is the process of finding the optimum design of a system whose performance measure(s) are estimated via simulation. We propose some ideas to improve o...
How much of the literature on social simulation is about modelling for modellers? Conversely, how much of the literature is directly about the world in which we live
