A key assumption of all problem-solving approaches based on utility theory, including heuristic search, is that we can assign a utility or cost to each state. This in turn require...
Basic Local Alignment Search Tool (BLAST) is a standard computer application that molecular biologists use to search for sequence similarity in genomic databases. This report desc...
Solving relaxed problems is a commonly used technique in heuristic search to derive heuristic estimates. In heuristic planning, this is usually done by expanding a planning (reach...

We propose a troubleshooting algorithm that can troubleshoot systems with dependent action costs. When actions are performed they may change the way the system is decomposed and af...
Currently the key problems of query optimization are extensibility imposed by object-relational technology, as well as query complexity caused by forthcoming applications, such as...
