A Behavioral Notion of Subtyping

by Barbara H. Liskov, Jeanette M. Wing - ACM Transactions on Programming Languages and Systems , 1994
"... The use of hierarchy is an important component of object-oriented design. Hierarchy allows the use of type families, in which higher level supertypes capture the behavior that all of their subtypes have in common. For this methodology to be effective, it is necessary to have a clear understanding of ..."

Behavior-based Formation Control for Multi-robot Teams

by Tucker Balch, Ronald C. Arkin - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON ROBOTICS AND AUTOMATION , 1997
"... New reactive behaviors that implement formations in multi-robot teams are presented and evaluated. The formation behaviors are integrated with other navigational behaviors to enable a robotic team to reach navigational goals, avoid hazards and simultaneously remain in formation. The behaviors are im ..."

Flocks, herds, and schools: a distributed behavior model,

by Craig W Reynolds - Proceedings of ACM SIGGRAPH , 1987
"... Abstract The aggregate motion of a flock of birds, a herd of land animals, or a school of fish is a beautiful and familiar part of the natural world. But this type of complex motion is rarely seen in computer animation. This paper explores an approach based on simulation as an alternative to script ..."

End-to-End Routing Behavior in the Internet

by Vern Paxson , 1996
"... The large-scale behavior of routing in the Internet has gone virtually without any formal study, the exception being Chinoy's analysis of the dynamics of Internet routing information [Ch93]. We report on an analysis of 40,000 end-to-end route measurements conducted using repeated “traceroutes” ..."

An intrusion-detection model

by Dorothy E. Denning - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON SOFTWARE ENGINEERING , 1987
"... A model of a real-time intrusion-detection expert system capable of detecting break-ins, penetrations, and other forms of computer abuse is described. The model is based on the hypothesis that security violations can be detected by monitoring a system's audit records for abnormal patterns of sy ..."

of system usage. The model includes profiles for representing the behavior of subjects with respect to objects in terms of metrics and statistical models, and rules for acquiring knowledge about this behavior from audit records and for detecting anomalous behavior. The model is independent of any particular

Metabolic stability and epigenesis in randomly connected nets

by S. A. Kauffman - Journal of Theoretical Biology , 1969
"... “The world is either the effect of cause or chance. If the latter, it is a world for all that, that is to say, it is a regular and beautiful structure.” Marcus Aurelius Proto-organisms probably were randomly aggregated nets of chemical reactions. The hypothesis that contemporary organisms are also r ..."

: behave with great order and stability; undergo behavior cycles whose length predicts cell replication time as a function of the number of genes per cell; possess different modes of behavior whose number per net predicts roughly the number of cell types in an organism as a function of its number of genes

Domain names - Implementation and Specification

by P. Mockapetris - RFC-883, USC/Information Sciences Institute , 1983
"... This RFC describes the details of the domain system and protocol, and assumes that the reader is familiar with the concepts discussed in a companion RFC, "Domain Names- Concepts and Facilities " [RFC-1034]. The domain system is a mixture of functions and data types which are an official pr ..."

protocol and functions and data types which are still experimental. Since the domain system is intentionally extensible, new data types and experimental behavior should always be expected in parts of the system beyond the official protocol. The official protocol parts include standard queries, responses

A Bayesian computer vision system for modeling human interactions

by Nuria M. Oliver, Barbara Rosario, Alex P. Pentland - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... We describe a real-time computer vision and machine learning system for modeling and recognizing human behaviors in a visual surveillance task [1]. The system is particularly concerned with detecting when interactions between people occur and classifying the type of interaction. Examples of interes ..."

Risk as Feelings

by George F. Loewenstein, Christopher K. Hsee, Elke U. Weber, Ned Welch , 2001
"... Virtually all current theories of choice under risk or uncertainty are cognitive and consequentialist. They assume that people assess the desirability and likelihood of possible outcomes of choice alternatives and integrate this information through some type of expectation-based calculus to arrive a ..."

Nearest neighbor queries.

by Nick Roussopoulos , Stephen Kelley , Fr Ed , Eric Vincent - ACM SIGMOD Record, , 1995
"... Abstract A frequently encountered type of query in Geographic Information Systems is to nd the k nearest neighbor objects to a given point in space. Processing such queries requires substantially di erent search algorithms than those for location or range queries. In this paper we present a n e cie ..."
