Previous research into the efficiency of text retrieval systems has dealt primarily with methods that consider inverted lists in sequence; these methods are known as term-at-a-tim...
In this paper we present a macroscopic model for the analysis of homogeneous task-directed multi-robot systems (MRS). The model is used to compute the probability that a given MRS ...
Self-propagating computer worms have been terrorizing the Internet for the last several years. With the increasing density, inter-connectivity and bandwidth of the Internet combin...
For systems where exact constitutive relations are unknown, a microscopic level description can be alternatively used. As microscopic simulations are computationally expensive, th...
Following up on a recently renewed interest in computational methods for M/G/1-type processes, this paper considers an M/G/1-like system in which the service time distribution is ...
