We present results from a field study investigating the influence of conversations on the multitasking behavior of computer users. We report on several findings, including the timi...
The evolutionary algorithms can be considered as a powerful and interesting technique for solving large kinds of control problems. However, the great disadvantage of the evolutiona...
I propose a set of criteria which distinguish a grand challenge in science or engineering from the many other kinds of short-term or long-term research problems that engage the int...
Self-adjusting computation provides an evaluation model where computations can respond automatically to modifications to their data by using a mechanism for propagating modifica...

In this paper we prove that the well-known correspondence between the forward-backward algorithm for hidden Markov models (HMMs) and belief propagation (BP) applied to HMMs can be...
