In spoken dialogue systems, Partially Observable Markov Decision Processes (POMDPs) provide a formal framework for making dialogue management decisions under uncertainty, but effi...
In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm for managing replicated data. We impose a logical tree structure on the set of copies of an object. In a failurefree environment t...
The concept of hierarchical access control is that a higher privileged user (or higher level) has the ability to access data in lower privileged user (or lower level). Hierarchica...
Abstract. We propose a distributed and adaptive topology management algorithm, called PATM (Priority-based Adaptive Topology Management), that constructs and maintains a connected ...
To support more efficient video database management, this paper explores the concept of video association mining, with which the association patterns are characterized by sequenti...
