In this paper we introduce the concept of zero-change transformations to quantify the suboptimality of existing placers. Given a netlist and its placement from a placer, we formal...
This work presents a study of the nature of expertise in geology, which demands visual recognition methods to describe and interpret petroleum reservoir rocks. In an experiment usi...
Test case design is the most important test activity with respect to test quality. For this reason, a large number of testing methods have been developed to assist the tester with ...
In this paper, we consider a proportional delay model for Internet differentiated services. Under this model, an ISP can control the “spacing” of waiting times between differe...

Complete algorithms have been proposed to solve problems modelled as distributed constraint optimization (DCOP). However, there are only few attempts to address real world scenari...
