Technical report TR12-01. Limited energy supply is a chief concern when dealing with wireless sensor networks (WSNs). Thus, among other issues, routing protocols for WSNs should be designed with the goal of being energy efficient in the first place. For static networks this is already a...

Technical report TR05-20. In this report, we present a novel method for synchronizing multiple (more than 2) un-calibrated video sequences recording the same event by free-moving full-perspective cameras. Unlike previous point feature based synchronization methods, our method takes advantage of...

Technical report TR11-04. World model is very important for model-based reinforcement learning. For example, a model is frequently used in Dyna: in learning steps to select actions and in planning steps to project sampled states or features. In this paper we propose least-squares Dyna (LS-Dyna)...

Technical report TR02-04. As the amount of traffic carried by the Internet grows, the rate at which packets must be processed at each router and switch in the network also increases. The results of routing table lookups can be cached in order to accommodate this increasing deamand for fast...

Lower Bounds on the Population Size in Genetic Algorithms and Implicit Parallelism Revisited
Download2002
Technical report TR02-20. Determining an appropriate population size is very important in genetic algorithms and is closely related to the principle of implicit parallelism. In this paper, the problem of sizing the population is formulated as that of minimization of sampling errors. Two sampling...

Technical report TR11-06. Maintainability is a desirable property of software, and a variety of metrics have been proposed for measuring it, all based on different notions of complexity. Although these metrics are useful, complexity is only one factor influencing maintainability. Practical...

Maintaining Database Consistency in the Presence of Schema Evolution: An Evolutionary Approach based on Versions of Schema
Download1996
Technical report TR96-31. With rapid advances in computer network technology and the increasing interest in global information sharing, grows the need for facilities that can effectively maintain the database consistency and program compatibility as the schema evolves. In this paper, we present...

1992
Technical report TR92-19. In August 1992, the first man versus machine world championship took place. The champion, Dr. Marion Tinsley, is arguably the greatest checkers player that ever lived. The challenger was the computer checkers program Chinook, a 3 year team effort from the University of...

In the field of computational game theory, games are often compared in terms of their size. This can be measured in several ways, including the number of unique game states, the number of decision points, and the total number of legal actions over all decision points. These numbers are either...
