An Adaptive Query Execution System for Data Integration
, 1999
"... Query processing in data integration occurs over networkbound, autonomous data sources. This requires extensions to traditional optimization and execution techniques for three reasons: there is an absence of quality statistics about the data, data transfer rates are unpredictable and bursty, and slo ..."

Task Scheduling Strategies for Workflow-based Applications in Grids
- IN CCGRID
, 2005
"... Grid applications require allocating a large number of heterogeneous tasks to distributed resources. A good allocation is critical for efficient execution. However, many existing grid toolkits use matchmaking strategies that do not consider overall efficiency for the set of tasks to be run. We ident ..."

simulations of workflows drawn from a real application and with varying ratios of computation cost to data transfer cost. We observe that workflow-based approaches have a potential to work better for data-intensive applications even when estimates about future tasks are inaccurate.
Directed Exploration in Reinforcement Learning with Transferred Knowledge
"... Experimental results suggest that transfer learning (TL), compared to learning from scratch, can decrease exploration by reinforcement learning (RL) algorithms. Most existing TL algorithms for RL are heuristic and may result in worse performance than learning from scratch (i.e., negative transfer). ..."

even with highly inaccurate and partial intertask mappings. Finally, we empirically test directed exploration with transfer in a multijoint reaching task, which highlights the value of our analysis and the robustness of our approach under imperfect conditions.
Improving Adjustable Autonomy Strategies for Time-Critical Domains
"... As agents begin to perform complex tasks alongside humans as collaborative teammates, it becomes crucial that the resulting humanmultiagent teams adapt to time-critical domains. In such domains, adjustable autonomy has proven useful by allowing for a dynamic transfer of control of decision making be ..."

between human and agents. However, existing adjustable autonomy algorithms commonly discretize time, which not only results in high algorithm runtimes but also translates into inaccurate transfer of control policies. In addition, existing techniques fail to address decision making inconsistencies often
Convective heat transfer as a function of wavelength: Implications for the cooling of the Earth
- J. Geophys. Res
, 2005
"... [1] Attempting to reconstruct the thermal history of the Earth from a geophysical point of view has for a long time been in disagreement with geochemical data. The geophysical approach uses parameterized models of mantle cooling. The rate of cooling of the Earth at the beginning of its history obtai ..."

reduce the efficiency of heat transfer. The likely variations of this wavelength with the Wilson cycle thus imply important variations of the heat flow out of the Earth on a intermediate timescale of 100 Ma, which renders parameterized models of thermal evolution inaccurate for quantitative predictions.
EXPERIMENTAL PROCEDURES ON AN APPROACH TO THE AIR HEAT TRANSFER PROCESS THROUGH THE TUBE 1
"... The results of analytical perceiving as well as calculations, while heat is transferred through the tube, were researched. Since the entrance heat as well as the outlet heat at the end of the tube is not steady, the resulted numbers therefore, out of both the former heat transfer and the latter at t ..."

Disjoint Region Partitioning for Probabilistic Switching Activity Estimation at Register Transfer Level
, 2009
"... Abstract. This paper presents a partition method for probabilistic switching activity estimation of combinational circuits described at register transfer level (RTL). Probabilistic estimation of switching activity requires large and complex models that could be unfeasible for large circuits; theref ..."

Privacy in Electronic Funds Transfer Chapter 4 Privacy in Electronic Funds Transfer Chapter

Three principal concerns about electronic funds transfer (EFT) privacy have arisen: 1. the extent to which personal data in EFT systems are or might be disclosed to third parties by financial institutions; 2. the possibility of Government or private surveillance through EFT systems and data files; a ..."

Improved Gene Tree Error-Correction in the Presence of Horizontal Gene Transfer
"... †Equal contribution Motivation: The accurate inference of gene trees is a necessary step in many evolutionary studies. While the problem of accurate gene tree inference has received considerable attention, most existing methods are only applicable to gene families unaffected by horizontal gene trans ..."
Abstract
- Add to MetaCart
methods yield inaccurate gene trees when applied to horizontally transferred gene families and that our method dramatically improves gene tree accuracy. We apply our method to a dataset of 11 cyanobacterial species and demonstrate the large impact of gene tree accuracy on downstream evolutionary analyses
