Support vector (SV) machines are useful tools to classify populations characterized by abrupt decreases in density functions. At least for one class of Gaussian data model the SV ...
We consider the problem of converting C pointers to the less flexible concept of references. Our main application is converting scientific applications from C to Java. We provid...
We consider a FIFO multiplexer fed by flows that are individually constrained by arrival curves, and look for the best possible arrival curve for every output flow. This problem a...
Abstract--Reliability and/or availability are increasingly important aspects in the design of systems, especially networks and service offerings. Optimization here is a multi-crite...
-- Most optimization algorithms that use probabilistic models focus on extracting the information from good solutions found in the population. A selection method discards the below...
