A number of pitfalls of empirical scheduling research are illustrated using real experimental data. These pitfalls, in general, serve to slow the progress of scheduling research b...

It is generally accepted that special purpose algebraic systems are more efficient than general purpose ones, but as machines get faster this does not matter. An experiment has be...
In this paper we derive a simpler form of Particle Swarm Optimiser (PSO) which still retains the key properties of the original model. We do so by progressively altering the origin...

The monitoring of emotional user states can help to assess the progress of human-machine-communication. If we look at specific databases, however, we are faced with several problem...

We describe a novel framework for the design and analysis of online learning algorithms based on the notion of duality in constrained optimization. We cast a sub-family of universa...
