State-of-the-art technologies in very large scale integration (VLSI) allow for the realization of gates with varying energy consumptions and hence delays (i.e., processing speeds) ...
— We demonstrate ROX, a run-time optimizer of XQueries, that focuses on finding the best execution order of XPath steps and relational joins in an XQuery. The problem of join or...

In dangerous and uncertain environments initial plans must be revised. Communication failures hamper this replanning. We introduce fractured subteams as a novel formalism for mode...
We consider the problem of dynamic buying and selling of shares from a collection of N stocks with random price fluctuations. To limit investment risk, we place an upper bound on t...
Reinforcement learning is one of the main adaptive mechanisms that is both well documented in animal behaviour and giving rise to computational studies in animats and robots. In th...
