The ReGreT system is a trust and reputation mechanism that uses, among other things, social information to improve the calculation of trust and reputation measures. Using a framew...
A direct approach for parametric estimation of 2D affine deformations between compound shapes is proposed. It provides the result as a least-square solution of a linear system of ...
In this paper, we derive an analytical model for the evaluation of the performance of a Video on Demand (VoD) system. The model estimates the mean waiting time achievable by the P...
This study describes how complex goal-directed behavior can evolve in a hierarchically organized recurrent neural network controlling a simulated Khepera robot. Different types of ...
This paper focuses on the problem of scheduling outages to computer systems in complex distributed environments. The interconnected nature of these systems makes scheduling global ...
