Player-Compatible Equilibrium (PCE) imposes cross-player restrictions on the magnitudes of players' “trembles” onto different strategies. These capture idea that trembles correspond to deliberate experiments by agents who are unsure prevailing distribution play. PCE selects intuitive equilibria in a number examples where trembling-hand perfect equilibrium (Selten, 1975) and proper (Myerson, 197...

Given a Poisson structure (or, equivalently, a Hamiltonian operator) P , we show that its Lie derivative Lτ (P ) along a vector field τ defines another Poisson structure, which is automatically compatible with P , if and only if [L τ (P ), P ] = 0, where [·, ·] is the Schouten bracket. This result yields a new local description for the set of all Poisson structures compatible with a given Poiss...

The ROMVOX Text-toaSpeech synthesis system developed by our team is the first one that allowed the synthesis of any unrestricted Romanian text with intonation facilities on 1BM-PC compatible computers. During the last years of research several version of text-to-speech systems were achieved, trying to enhance their facilities. Our paper describes the present stage of our experiments performed i...

We present a next-generation architecture that addresses problems of dependability, maintainability, and manageability of I/O devices and their software drivers on the PC platform. Our architecture resolves both hardware and software issues, exploiting emerging hardware features to improve device safety. Our high-performance implementation, based on the Xen virtual machine monitor, provides an ...
