State-of-the-art automatic reliability analyses as used in system-level design approaches mainly rely on Binary Decision Diagrams (BDDs) and, thus, face two serious problems: (1) ...
In large storage systems, it is crucial to protect data from loss due to failures. Erasure codes lay the foundation of this protection, enabling systems to reconstruct lost data w...
This paper proposes a novel method for global registration based on matching 3D medial structures of unorganized point clouds or triangulated meshes. Most practical known methods ...

In this paper we present a quantitative study of data survival in peer to peer storage systems. We first recall two main redundancy mechanisms: replication and erasure codes, whic...
One important aspect in directing cognitive robots or agents is to formally specify what is expected of them. This is often referred to as goal specification. For agents whose act...
