Although identity based cryptography offers many functional advantages over conventional public key alternatives, the computational costs are significantly greater. The core comp...
This work presents the application of theory revision to the design of distributed databases to automatically revise a heuristic-based algorithm (called analysis algorithm) through...
Mastering the complexity of programs and systems, particularly distributed systems, should lead to signi cant improvements in program and system understanding. In this paper we pr...

Phonetic matching is used in applications such as name retrieval, where the spelling of a name is used to identify other strings that are likely to be of similar pronunciation. In...
We present a domain independent off-line adaptation technique called Stochastic Plan Optimization for finding and improving plans in real-time strategy games. Our method is based ...
