Virtual environments provide a rich and varied domain for intelligent agents, but questions of design and development in this context are still to be answered. An agent with multip...
Loops are the main time consuming part of programs based on floating point computations. The performance of the loops is limited either by recurrences in the computation or by the...
Traditional reliability measures for computer systems can be classi ed into Computer-Centric or Application-Centric categories. The former concentrate on the hardware resources whi...
