We hypothesize that certain program complexities and difficulties to realize reuse potentials have their roots in weak mechanisms for generic design of today’s programming techn...
Rectangle (square) packing problems involve packing all squares with sizes 1 × 1 to n × n into the minimum area enclosing rectangle (respectively, square). Rectangle packing is a...
Synchronous dataflow (SDF) has been successfully used in design tools for system-level simulation of wireless communication systems. Modern wireless communication standards involv...
Privacy is the most often-cited criticism of ubiquitous computing, and may be the greatest barrier to its long-term success. However, developers currently have little support in d...
In this paper, we propose a new asymmetric boosting method, Boosting with Different Costs. Traditional boosting methods assume the same cost for misclassified instances from di...
