We describe a new subdivision method to efficiently compute the topology and the arrangement of implicit planar curves. We emphasize that the output topology and arrangement are g...
Numerical examples of a Braess-like paradox in which adding capacity to a distributed computer system may degrade the performance of all users in the system have been reported. Un...
ko et al. have recently proposed an abstract framework for default reasoning. Besides capturing most existing formalisms and proving that their standard semantics all coincide, th...
This paper presents a case study on the use of an alternative method of computer support to that normally used, one that uses voting as a tool for social rather than rational choi...
One of the challenges in building analytic performance models such as queuing network models is obtaining service demands for the various workloads and various devices. While some...
