This paper presents a framework for maximum a posteriori (MAP) speaker adaptation of state duration distributions in hidden Markov models (HMM). Four key issues of MAP estimation, ...
In a Distributed Database System (DDBS), transactions on objects can be read requests or write requests in a random manner. The replication algorithm of objects critically affects...
Distributed applications execute in environments that can include different network architectures as well as a range of compute platforms. Furthermore, these resources are shared ...
A self-organized approach to manage a distributed proxy system called Adaptive Distributed Caching (ADC) has been proposed previously. We model each proxy as an autonomous agent th...
Exploiting autonomic adaptation in defending a distributed application is a relatively new research area. We describe how the QuO adaptive middleware was used to implement auto-ad...
