Abstract. In this work, we address the problem of transient and steadystate analysis of a stochastic Petri net which includes non Markovian distributions with a finite support but ...
All but the most briefly used systems must evolve as their mission and roles change over time. Evolution in the context of large distributed systems is extraordinarily complex bec...
Slope selection is a well-known algorithmic tool used in the context of computing robust estimators for fitting a line to a collection P of n points in the plane. We demonstrate th...
We address the problem of sorting in the presence of faults that may arbitrarily corrupt memory locations, and investigate the impact of memory faults both on the correctness and ...
: In the future, we propose that there will be largely self-sufficient robot colonies operating on distant planets and in harsh environments here on earth. A highly desirable quali...
