The performance of computer systems depends, among other things, on the workload. This motivates the use of real workloads (as recorded in activity logs) to drive simulations of n...
Grid computing brings with it additional complexities and unexpected failures. Just keeping track of our jobs traversing different grid resources before completion can at times be...
Approximate queries on a collection of strings are important in many applications such as record linkage, spell checking, and Web search, where inconsistencies and errors exist in...
We propose a distributed on-demand power-management protocol for collecting data in sensor networks. The protocol aims to reduce power consumption while supporting fluctuating dem...
Video information, image processing and computer vision techniques are developing rapidly nowadays because of the availability of acquisition, processing and editing tools, which ...
