Management of virtual machines (VMs) on a large scale remains a significant challenge today. We lack general and vendor-independent quantitative criteria/metrics by which to desc...
This paper addresses a surgery rooms scheduling problem. The problem is modeled as a parallel machine scheduling problem with sequence dependent setup times and an objective of mi...
Support vector machine (SVM) has received much attention in feature selection recently because of its ability to incorporate kernels to discover nonlinear dependencies between feat...
In aiming at research and development on machine translation, we produced a test collection for Japanese-English machine translation in the seventh NTCIR Workshop. This paper desc...
A multiprocessor virtual machine benefits its guest operating system in supporting scalable job throughput and request latency--useful properties in server consolidation where ser...
