Abstract. We present a purely vision-based scheme for learning a topological representation of an open environment. The system represents selected places by local views of the surr...
Due to the complexity of today's systems, prototyping by simulation must be based on simulation-engine-like performance. It is proved by implementations that compiler-driven ...
In a multidatabase environment with mobile computers involved, the nature of computing is such that the user may not wait for the submitted global transaction to complete before d...
Abstract. In this paper, we further develop the idea of combining pervasive computing techniques with electronic payment systems to create activity-based micro-incentives. Economic...
We present an approach to hybrid semantic Web service matching that complements logic based reasoning with approximate matching based on syntactic IR based similarity computations...
