Abstract. This paper gives an overview of the Jacob project. This project involves the construction of a 3D virtual environment where an animated human-like agent called Jacob give...
The development of distributed applications is an open area involving researchers from different communities. We propose an object-oriented approach to the development of distribu...
This paper proposes an optimal approach to infinite-state action planning exploiting automata theory. State sets and actions are characterized by Presburger formulas and represent...
It is well known that trivariate reduction — a method to generate two dependent random variables from three independent random variables — can be used to generate Poisson rand...
In an assembly line with high labor proportion, the workforce planning and scheduling is a very complex problem. At the background of increasing labor costs, it is very important ...
