Abstract The variety of existing agent-based simulations is overwhelming. However – especially when comparing agent-based simulation to other simulation paradigms, a reference fr...
We solve the problem of obtaining answers to queries posed to a mediated integration system un der the local-as-view paradigm that are consistent wrt to certain global integrity...
The heterogeneous and dynamic nature of Grid environments place new demands on models and paradigms for parallel programming. In this work we discuss how ALua, a programming syste...
Eight successively refined simulation models for the earthmoving operations involved in the construction of a dam provide the foundation for illustrating the ease and effectivenes...
This paper proposes a technique for object recognition using superquadric built models. Superquadrics, which are three-dimensional models suitable for part-level representation of...
