Advances in sensing and communication technology make sensor networks a convenient and cost effective tool for collecting data in hard to reach and hazardous areas Increasingly, s...
Evaluating a query can involve manipulation of large volumes of temporary data. When the volume of data becomes too great, activities such as joins and sorting must use disk, and ...
Many host-based anomaly detection systems monitor a process ostensibly running a known program by observing the system calls the process makes. Numerous improvements to the precis...
We discuss some basic techniques for modeling dependence between the random variables that are inputs to a simulation model, with the main emphasis being continuous bivariate dist...
We present new algorithms for local planning over Markov decision processes. The base-level algorithm possesses several interesting features for control of computation, based on s...
