A Survey on Case-Based Planning
Authors: Luca Spalzzi
Venue: Artificial Intelligence Review (2001)

Case-based planning is the reuse of past successful plans in order to solve new planning problems. This paper presents a survey of case-based planning, in terms of its historical roots, underlying foundations, methods and techniques currently used, limitations, and future trends. Several authors have given overviews on case-based reasoning and specific topics such as case retrieval, case adaptation, and learning. This overview differs in focus. Its aim is to emphasize the case-based approach to planning, its methodological issues, and its relation to classical planning and the other kinds of case-based reasoning. It also provides some reference models.
Problems in making telecommunications services accessible
Authors: Martin Maguire
Venue: Issue 69 (January 2001) (2001)

Information technology is continually developing and in the last few years there has been a rapid growth in electronic telecommunications to provide Internet and other network-based services. Interest in using telecommunications to provide services to the public is growing, with a number of pilot services being set up across the country to explore market potential and/or stimulate demand.Administrations across Europe are now using telecommunications technology to provide citizens with information (Hoare, 1998). The British Government, for instance, has issued a directive that 25% of all civil service communications must be on-line by 2002. This is intended to provide savings in paperwork and a streamlined service.An area of possible government assistance is to provide the public with on-line information about welfare benefit entitlement. This may have benefits for all members of society but could be of particular value for retired and older members of the public, many of whom do not always claim their entitlement. It is estimated in the UK, for example, that one million pensioners could be entitled to Income Support that they are not claiming (Benefits Agency, 1998). To provide information to the public, the Benefits Agency produces a website of over 1,000 pages for customers to browse through which can be viewed at http://www.dss.gov.uk/ba. Yet while many people are now connected to the Internet, and the EU average is 25 computers connected per thousand people, (Lennon, 1999) the number of older or retired people using it is still quite small. An indication of this is given by the results of the worldwide 10th Georgia Tech web survey (GVU, 1999). The survey, conducted in 1998, received 5,022 responses of which only 2.7% were from people who were 66 years of age and over.This raises the key question of whether older people will be able to benefit from the promise of the connected future, with information available electronically on tap, or whether they will get left behind. This also represents a lost opportunity for suppliers as, according to Oftel (the UK telephone watchdog organisation) and disability campaign groups, A growing grey market containing millions of potential customers is being ignored in the telecoms boom, Dawe (1998). This paper, therefore, discusses a number of issues relating to making telecommunication services accessible to the population as a whole.

Modern Compiler Implementation in C
Authors: Andrew W. Appel, Maia Ginsburg
Venue:  (1998)

:This textbook describes all phases of a modern compiler: lexical analysis, parsing, abstract syntax, semantic actions, intermediate representations, instruction selection via tree matching, dataflow analysis, graph-coloring register allocation, and runtime systems. It includes good coverage of current techniques in code generation and register allocation, as well as functional and object-oriented languages, that is missing from most books. The most accepted and successful techniques are described in a concise way, rather than as an exhaustive catalog of every possible variant. Detailed descriptions of the interfaces between modules of a compiler are illustrated with actual C header files. A unique feature of the book is a well designed compiler implementation project in C, including front-end and "high-tech" back-end phases, so that students can build a complete working compiler in one semester.

Relative information capacity of simple relational database schemata
Authors: Richard Hull
Venue: Proceedings of the 3rd ACM SIGACT-SIGMOD symposium on Principles of database systems (1984)

Fundamental notions of relative information capacity between database structures are studied in the context of the relational model. Four progressively less restrictive formal definitions of "dominance" between pairs of relational database schemata are given. Each of these is shown to capture intuitively appealing, semantically meaningful properties which are natural for measures of relative information capacity between schemata. Relational schemata, both with and without key dependencies, are studied using these notions. A significant intuitive conclusion concerns the informal notion of relative information capacity often suggested in the conceptual database literature, which is based on accessability of data via queries. Results here indicate that this notion is too general to accurately measure whether an underlying semantic connection exists between database schemata. Another important result of the paper shows that under any natural notion of information capacity equivalence, two relational schemata (with no dependencies) are equivalent if and only if they are identical (up to re-ordering of the attributes and relations). The approach and definitions used here can form part of the foundation for a rigorous investigation of a variety of important database problems involving data relativism, including those of schema integration and schema translation.

Authors: Tadashi Nomoto, Yuji Matsumoto
Venue: Proceedings of the 25th annual international ACM SIGIR conference on Research and development in information retrieval (2002)

The paper proposes and empirically motivates an integration of supervised learning with unsupervised learning to deal with human biases in summarization. In particular, we explore the use of probabilistic decision tree within the clustering framework to account for the variation as well as regularity in human created summaries.
XML Pocket Reference, 1st edition
Authors: Robert Eckstein
Venue:  (1999)

:XML, the Extensible Markup Language, is the next-generation markup language for the Web. It provides a more structured and more powerful medium than HTML, allowing us to define new document types and stylesheets as needed. Although the generic tags of HTML are sufficient for everyday text, XML gives us a way to add rich, well-defined markup to electronic documents. The XML Pocket Reference, Second Edition, is both a handy introduction to XML terminology and syntax, and a quick reference to XML instructions, attributes, entities, and datatypes. Although XML itself is complex, its basic concepts are simple. This small book serves both as a perfect tutorial for learning the basics of XML, and as a reference to the XML specification. This second edition includes information on XSLT (Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformations) and XPath.

Saving portable computer battery power through remote process execution
Authors: Alexey Rudenko, Peter Reiher, Gerald J. Popek, Geoffrey H. Kuenning
Venue: ACM SIGMOBILE Mobile Computing and Communications Review (1998)

We describe a new approach to power saving and battery life extension on an untethered laptop through wireless remote processing of power-costly tasks. We ran a series of experiments comparing the power consumption of processes run locally with that of the same processes run remotely. We examined the trade-off between communication power expenditures and the power cost of local processing. This paper describes our methodology and results of our experiments. We suggest ways to further improve this approach, and outline a software design to support remote process execution.

Ribbon tile invariants from the signed area
Authors: Cristopher Moore, Igor Pak
Venue: Journal of Combinatorial Theory Series A (2002)

Ribbon tiles are polyominoes consisting of n squares laid out in a path, each step of which goes north or east. Tile invariants were first introduced by the second author (2000, Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 352, 5525-5561), where a full basis of invariants of ribbon tiles was conjectured. Here we present a complete proof of the conjecture, which works by associating ribbon tiles with certain polygons in the complex plane, and deriving invariants from the signed area of these polygons.
A Nonlinear Lagrangian Approach to Constrained Optimization Problems
Authors: X. Q. Yang, X. X. Huang
Venue: SIAM Journal on Optimization (2000)

In this paper we study nonlinear Lagrangian functions for constrained optimization problems which are, in general, nonlinear with respect to the objective function. We establish an equivalence between two types of zero duality gap properties, which are described using augmented Lagrangian dual functions and nonlinear Lagrangian dual functions, respectively. Furthermore, we show the existence of a path of optimal solutions generated by nonlinear Lagrangian problems and show its convergence toward the optimal set of the original problem. We analyze the convergence of several classes of nonlinear Lagrangian problems in terms of their first and second order necessary optimality conditions.
