We consider a generalisation of Larsen and Skou’s [19] reactive probabilistic transition systems which exhibit three kinds of choice: action-guarded probabilistic choice, extern...
The aim of the paper is to introduce techniques in order to optimize the parallel execution time of sorting on heterogeneous platforms (processors speeds are related by a constant...
Partitioning within a B-tree, based on an artificial leading key column and combined with online reorganization, can be exploited during external merge sort for accurate deep read...
Abstract—Nonverbal behavior during human-human close encounters is critical to the accomplishment of natural interaction. For this reason, humanoid robots trying to achieve natur...
