The sequential importance sampling (SIS) algorithm has gained considerable popularity for its empirical success. One of its noted applications is to the binary contingency tables p...
The design of a CBR system involves the use of similarity metrics. For many applications, various functions can be adopted to compare case features and to aggregate them into a glo...
Non-determinism of the thread schedule is a well-known problem in concurrent programming. However, other sources of non-determinism exist which cannot be controlled by an applicati...
We observe that pushdown tree automata (PTAs) known in the literature cannot express combinations of branching and pushdown properties. This is because a PTA processes the children...
This paper presents a hybrid technique that combines List Scheduling (LS) with Genetic Algorithms (GA) for constructing non-preemptive schedules for soft real-time parallel applic...
