A powerful approach to search is to try to learn a distribution of good solutions (in particular of the dependencies between their variables) and use this distribution as a basis ...
Many recent large-scale distributed computing applications utilize spare processor cycles of personal computers that are connected to the Internet. The resulting distributed compu...
This paper examines how computation can be mapped across the nodes of a distributed search system to effectively utilize available resources. We specifically address computationa...

Parallel and distributed simulations enable the analysis of complex systems by concurrently exploiting the aggregate computation power and memory of clusters of execution units. I...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have proved to be a powerful and highly scalable alternative to traditional client-server architectures for content distribution. They offer the techni...
