Toward Characterizing the Performance of SOAP Toolkits
- In GRID ’04
, 2004
"... To make sure that there are no page numbers printed For final camera-ready version, uncomment the following line The SOAP protocol underpins Web services as the standard mechanism for exchanging information in a distributed environment. The XML-based protocol offers advantages including extensibilit ..."

. Various SOAP implementations differ in their implementation language, invocation model and API, and supported performance optimizations. In this paper we compare and contrast the performance of widely used SOAP toolkits and draw conclusions about their current performance characteristics. We also provide
A Conceptual Framework and a Toolkit for Supporting the Rapid Prototyping of Context-Aware Applications
, 2001
"... Computing devices and applications are now used beyond the desktop, in diverse environments, and this trend toward ubiquitous computing is accelerating. One challenge that remains in this emerging research field is the ability to enhance the behavior of any application by informing it of the context ..."

Grid Information Services for Distributed Resource Sharing
, 2001
"... Grid technologies enable large-scale sharing of resources within formal or informal consortia of individuals and/or institutions: what are sometimes called virtual organizations. In these settings, the discovery, characterization, and monitoring of resources, services, and computations are challengi ..."

Policy gradient methods for reinforcement learning with function approximation.
- In NIPS,
, 1999
"... Abstract Function approximation is essential to reinforcement learning, but the standard approach of approximating a value function and determining a policy from it has so far proven theoretically intractable. In this paper we explore an alternative approach in which the policy is explicitly repres ..."

, but has several limitations. First, it is oriented toward finding deterministic policies, whereas the optimal policy is often stochastic, selecting different actions with specific probabilities (e.g., see In this paper we explore an alternative approach to function approximation in RL. Rather than
Steps toward artificial intelligence

The gSOAP Toolkit for Web Services and Peer-To-Peer Computing Networks
- proceedings of the 2nd IEEE International Symposium on Cluster Computing and the Grid (CCGrid2002)
, 2002
"... This paper presents the gSOAP stub and skeleton compiler. The compiler provides a unique SOAP-to-C/C++ language binding for deploying C/C++ applications in SOAP Web Services, clients, and peer-to-peer computing networks. gSOAP enables the integratation of (legacy) C/C++/Fortran codes, embedded syste ..."

Threatened egotism, narcissism, selfesteem, and direct and displaced aggression: Does self-love or self-hate lead to violence
- Journal of Personality and Social Psychology
, 1998
"... It has been widely asserted that low self-esteem causes violence, but laboratory evidence is lacking, and some contrary observations have characterized aggressors as having favorable self-opinions. In 2 studies, both simple self-esteem and narcissism were measured, and then individual participants w ..."
