The Enhanced Pay-Per-View (EPPV) model for providing continuous-media services associates with each continuous-media clip a display frequency that depends on the clip's popula...

What will a definitive programming language look like? By definitive language I mean a programming language that gives good soat its level of abstraction, allowing computer science...
An efficient method for rate control is illustrated for joint source-channel rate selection and for encoding under multiple leaky bucket buffer constraints. This method shows adva...
We study decompositions of the global NVALUE constraint. Our main contribution is theoretical: we show that there are propagators for global constraints like NVALUE which decomposi...
