This paper describes some extensions added to the continuous simulation language OOCSMP to perform agent-oriented simulation. The extensions are tested by simulating the evolution...
Iterative solvers such as the Jacobi and Gauss-Seidel relaxation methods are important, but time-consuming building blocks of many scientific and engineering applications. The per...
We argue that matrix-based models are inadequate for regulating business to business (or B2B, for short) e-commerce due to the diversity, complexity and potential large number of ...
Index is an important element in databases, and the existence of index is unavoidable. When an index has been built on a particular attribute, database operations (e.g. selection,...
This paper presents in detail an efficient and provably correct algorithm for database replication over partitionable networks. Our algorithm avoids the need for end-toend acknow...
