This paper considers the use of Extreme Value Theory (EVT) to model worst-case execution times. In particular it considers the sacrifice that statistical methods make in the reali...
Hidden Markov models (HMMs) have received considerable attention in various communities (e.g, speech recognition, neurology and bioinformatic) since many applications that use HMM...
In this paper, we present an approach for measuring certain properties of synthetic optimization problems based on the assumed distribution of coefficient values. We show how to e...
Innovative e-business projects start with a design of the e-business model. We often encounter the view, in research as well as industry practice, that an e-business model is simil...
The environments in which ambient agents are used often may be described by dynamical models, for example in the form of a set of differential equations. In this paper an ambient a...
