The top-k retrieval problem requires finding k objects most similar to a given query object. Similarities between objects are most often computed as aggregated similarities of the...
Abstract. A central issue in the design of modern communication networks is the provision of Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantees at the presence of heterogeneous users. For instanc...
Abstract— Paths with loops, even transient ones, pose significant stability problems in high-speed networks. We present a new algorithm, named Distributed Path Computation with ...
A real-time database is composed of real-time objects whose values remain valid only within their validity intervals. Each object in the database models a real world entity. The f...
Abstract. Assertion-based contracts provide a powerful mechanism for stating invariants at module boundaries and for enforcing them uniformly. In 2002, Findler and Felleisen showed...
