Conceptual dependency and its descendants
(Elsevier, 1992)
This paper surveys representation and processing theories arising out of conceptual dependency theory. One of the primary characteristics of conceptual dependency was the notion of a canonical form, built out of a small ...
DUNIX: Distributed operating systems education via experimentation
(Elsevier, 1989-08)
Numerous distributed operating systems have been proposed in the literature, some of which have developed into commercial systems. Unfortunately, the educational arena has not kept up-to-date with these developments. ...
Browse and Search Patterns in a Digital Image Database
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2000-01)
A prototype image retrieval system with browse and search capabilities was developed to investigate patterns of searching a collection of digital visual images, as well as factors, such as image size, resolution, and ...
A practitioner's guide to data base compression tutorial
(Elsevier, 1983)
Data compression techniques can improve information system performance by reducing the size of a database by as much as ninety percent. This paper is written to provide assistance to practitioners considering the use of ...
A formal method for analyzing and integrating the rule-sets of multiple experts
(Elsevier, 1992-01)
Although there has been a movement toward the use of multiple sources of knowledge for expert systems development, there are no formal methods to guide knowledge engineers in integrating these sources. Further approaches ...
Task granularity studies on a many-processor CRAY X-MP
(Elsevier, 1985-06)
A hybrid granularity model is proposed for general concurrent solution. It is applied to the triangular factorization of a dense matrix ranging in size from 4 to 1024. Concurrency is achieved at two levels: (1) with small ...
New directions for medical artificial intelligence
(Elsevier, 1990)
The past decade has seen significant advances in medical artificial intelligence (MAI), but its role in medicine and medical education remains limited. The goal for the next decade must be directed towards maximizing the ...
A Dynamic Foundational Architecture for Semantic Web Services
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2005-03)
The combination of Web services and ontologies is gaining momentum as the potential silver bullets for tomorrow’s Web, i.e., the Semantic Web. We propose an architectural foundation for managing semantic Web services in ...
Supporting divide-and-conquer algorithms for image processing
(Elsevier, 1987-02)
Divide-and-conquer is an important algorithm strategy, but it is not widely used in image processing. For higher-level, symbolic operations it should often be the strategy of choice for parallel computers. It is natural ...
