We extend a torus-based coterie structure for distributed mutual exclusion to allow k multiple entries in a critical section. In the original coterie, the system nodes are logical...
Distributing scarce resources among agents in a way that maximizes the social welfare of the group is a computationally hard problem when the value of a resource bundle is not lin...
—We present the design and implementation of a parallel exact inference algorithm on the Cell Broadband Engine (Cell BE). Exact inference is a key problem in exploring probabilis...
Image classification is a well-studied and hard problem in computer vision. We extend a proven solution for classifying web spam to handle images. We exploit the link structure of...
Being able to efficiently answer arbitrary OLAP queries that aggregate along any combination of dimensions over numerical and categorical attributes has been a continued, major co...
