We present a novel passage-based approach to re-ranking documents in an initially retrieved list so as to improve precision at top ranks. While most work on passage-based document...
Increasingly, computer software must adapt dynamically to changing conditions. The correctness of adaptation cannot be rigorously addressed without precisely specifying the require...

— Providing powerful and fine-grained capabilities for the analysis and management of non-functional properties is a major challenge for component-based software systems. This a...
This paper deals with the adaptive control of a class of continuous-time nonlinear dynamic systems preceded by an unknown dead-zone. By using a new description of a dead-zone and ...
