Analogical Asides on Case-Based Reasoning
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-09)This paper explores some of the similarities and differences between cognitive models of analogy and case-based reasoning systems. I first point out a paradox in the treatment of adaptation in analogy and in case-based ... -
On the Limitations of Memory Based Reasoning
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-11)Memory-Based Reasoning (MBR) represents a radical new departure in AI research. Whereas work in symbolic AI is based on inference and knowledge representation MBR depends on using a large memory of examples as a reasoning ... -
Physical Model Generation in PDE Analysis using Model-based Case-based Reasoning
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-11)Model generation has emerged as a key task in engineering design and analysis. AI research in this area has focused on model based reasoning emphasising qualitative models in attempting to automate this process. In this ... -
A Comparison of Incremental Case-Based Reasoning and Inductive Learning
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-11)This paper focuses on problems where the reuse of old solutions seems appropriate but the conventional CBR methodology is not adequate because a complete description of the new problem is not available to trigger ... -
Retrieving Reusable Design Cases: Exploiting Adaptation Knowledge in Design Reuse
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-11)Case-based reasoning has been identified as a potentially fruitful candidate technology with which to investigate the development of automated design systems. Two critical stages in case-based design are design retrieval ... -
A Comparison of Model-Based and Incremental Case-Based Approaches to Electronic Fault Diagnosis
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-12)CBR seems well suited to fault diagnosis because diagnostic episodes naturally form cases and much of expert competence seems to be based on reuse of old solutions. However, in many diagnosis problems it is difficult ... -
Bezier Curves for Camera Motion
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-12)This paper describes an attempt to address some of the deficiencies and infelicities associated with the use of piecewise Bezier segments when constructing a smooth path for a camera in a computer animation. In particular, ... -
Experiments in Adaptation-Guided Retrieval in Case-Based Design
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1994-12)Case-based reasoning (CBR) has been applied with some success to complex planning and design tasks. In such systems, the best case is retrieved and adapted to solve a particular target problem. In general, the best case ... -
Making meta-object protocols practical for operating systems.
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 1995)This position paper considers how Meta-Object Protocol (MOP) technology can be used to support operating system flexibility including the dynamic adaption and extension of the system. We are interested in applying MOPs ... -
The VOID shell: A toolkit for the development of distributed video games and virtual worlds.
(1995)This paper presents a brief overview of the void ap- proach to the design and implementation of next- generation (distributed) video games and other inter- active virtual world applications. The main features of the ... -
On comprehensive global garbage Detection
(INRIA/IMAG, 1995)The experience gained with centralised garbage collection (GC) techniques has left a legacy of assumptions, expectations and tradeoffs, which may lead one to overlook some Global Garbage Detection (GGD) approaches. We argue ... -
An event based object model for distributed programming
(Springer-Verlag, 1995)This paper describes the rationale and design of a new distributed systems programming model based on events, constraints, and objects 1 . The paper describes the inter-object communication or invocation mechanism, and the ... -
Issues in Internetworking Wireless Data Networks for Mobile Computing
(IEEE, 1995)There are many issues specijk to the area of mobile computing which need to be addressed This paper will discuss the particular issues of mobile hosts, network management and security. -
User-oriented access to a multilingual database
(Trinity College (Dublin, Ireland). School of Computer Science & Statistics, 1995)This thesis describes the development of a system that provides user-oriented access to a multilingual database. The database concerned is the 1872 Printed Catalogue of Trinity College, Dublin, which lists many rare and ... -
A lazy log-keeping mechanism for comprehensive global garbage detection on Amadeus.
(Springer-Verlag, 1995)Global Garbage Detection (GGD) in object-oriented distributed systems requires that each application process maintains some information in support of GGD. Maintaining this information is known as log-keeping. In this paper ... -
Roo: A framework for real-time threads.
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 1995)Traditional object-oriented real-time systems are often limited an that they provide only one approach to real-time object support. Taking the increasing demand for flexible and extensible object support environments into ... -
Open to suggestions: On adaptable, Distributed Application Support Architectures
(INRIA/IMAG, 1995)In this paper we analyze the requirements that will be placed on future operating system architectures and conclude that most application areas will need different support from the operating system. What is needed for these ... -
Secure pay-per-view testbed
(IEEE, 1995)Trials of video on demand and pay-per-view systems are underway in many countries, and as a result, many cable and telecommunications companies are having to upgrade or replace their distribution networks. Video streams ... -
A Review of the Resource Management Task in ATM Networks
(Trinity College Dublin, Department of Computer Science, 1995-04)[Introduction] An ATM network is a connection-oriented, packet-switched network with the ability to transport heterogeneous services irrespective of characteristics across the same underlying physical network. ATM networks ...
