All existing proposals for querying XML (e.g., XQuery) rely on a pattern-specification language that allows (1) path navigation and branching through the label structure of the XM...
Abstract--In the past few years, the problem of distributed consensus has received a lot of attention, particularly in the framework of ad hoc sensor networks. Most methods propose...
We suggest a formal model to represent and solve the multicast routing problem in multicast networks. To attain this, we model the network adapting it to a weighted and-or graph, ...
Abstract One method which has been used very successfully for finding optimal and provably good solutions for large instances of the Symmetric Travelling Salesman Problem (STSP) i...
The majority of existing tracking algorithms are based on the maximum a posteriori (MAP) solution of a probabilistic framework using a Hidden Markov Model, where the distribution ...
