Boolean satisfiability (SAT) is the canonical NP-complete problem that plays an important role in AI and has many practical applications in Computer Science in general. Boolean n...
We address performance issues associated with simulationbased algorithms for optimizing Markov reward processes. Specifically, we are concerned with algorithms that exploit the re...
Over the last few years, object-oriented techniques have gained an increasing recognition both in software engineering and in AI. Object-oriented systems present undisputable adva...
This work introduces the concept of a Wireless Underground Sensor Network (WUSN). WUSNs can be used to monitor a variety of conditions, such as soil properties for agricultural ap...
