: This is a position paper introducing blob computing: A Blob is a generic primitive used to structure a uniform computing substrate into an easier-to-program parallel virtual mach...
In probabilistic grammatical inference, a usual goal is to infer a good approximation of an unknown distribution P called a stochastic language. The estimate of P stands in some cl...
Heterogeneous distributed computing systems often must operate in an environment where system parameters are subject to uncertainty. Robustness can be defined as the degree to wh...

Embedded system optimization typically considers objectives such as cost, timing, buffer sizes and power consumption. Robustness criteria, i.e. sensitivity of the system to variat...
This paper introduces a new measurement, robustness, to measure the quality of machine-discovered knowledge from real-world databases that change over time. A piece of knowledge i...
