Negotiation techniques have been demonstrated to be effective in solving complex multi-objective problems. When the optimization process operates on continuous variables, it can b...
Information in today’s enterprises commonly resides in a variety of heterogeneous data sources, including relational databases, web services, files, packaged applications, and c...
Abstract. Long running applications often need to adapt due to changing requirements or changing environment. Typically, such adaptation is performed by dynamically adding or remov...
Many researchers in our community (this author included) regularly emphasize the role constraints play in improving performance of data-mining algorithms. This emphasis has led to ...
We present a trace semantics for a language of parallel programs which share access to mutable data. We introduce a resource-sensitive logic for partial correctness, based on a re...
