We present a query architecture in which join operators are decomposed into their constituent data structures (State Modules, or SteMs), and dataflow among these SteMs is managed ...

Computer systems are resource constrained. Application adaptation is a useful way to optimize system resource usage while satisfying the application performance constraints. Previ...
— There is much to gain from providing walking machines with passive dynamics, e.g. by including compliant elements in the structure. These elements can offer interesting propert...
We investigate the following question. Do populations of evolving agents adapt only to their recent environment or do general adaptive features appear over time? We find statistica...
Several applications support the adaptation of course material. Even though most of these systems allow to specify interaction preferences or even employ user modeling techniques,...
