We provide an algebraic formalization of connectors in the BIP component framework. A connector relates a set of typed ports. Types are used to describe different modes of synchron...
An extended algorithm of the relative reward strength algorithm is proposed. It is shown that the proposed algorithm ensures the convergence with probability 1 to the optimal path ...
We study line systems in metric spaces induced by graphs. A line is a subset of vertices defined by a relation of betweeness. We show that the class of all graphs having exactly k ...
Abstract. In previous papers, we have presented a framework for merging structured information in XML involving uncertainty in the form of probabilities, degrees of beliefs and nec...
