We propose a Bayesian extension to the ad-hoc Language Model. Many smoothed estimators used for the multinomial query model in ad-hoc Language Models (including Laplace and Bayes-...

We consider topology control problems where the goal is to assign transmission powers to the nodes of an ad hoc network so as to induce graphs satisfying specific properties. The ...

In complex distributed applications, a problem is often decomposed into a set of subproblems that are distributed to multiple agents. We formulate this class of problems with a tw...
In complex systems, like robot plants, applications are built on top of a set of components, or devices. Each of them has particular individual constraints, and there are also log...
We consider the use of data reduction techniques for the problem of approximate query answering. We focus on applications for which accurate answers to selective queries are requi...
