Reliable storage of data with concurrent read/write accesses (or query/update) is an ever recurring issue in distributed settings. In mobile ad hoc networks, the problem becomes e...
Past empirical work has shown that learning multiple related tasks from data simultaneously can be advantageous in terms of predictive performance relative to learning these tasks...
Abstract— This paper proposes a simulation-based active policy learning algorithm for finite-horizon, partially-observed sequential decision processes. The algorithm is tested i...

Abstract. Our work focuses on distributed software services and their requirements in terms of system performance and dependability. We target the problem of finding optimal deploy...
ÐReal-time middleware services must guarantee predictable performance under specified load and failure conditions, and ensure graceful degradation when these conditions are violat...
