Abstract. The commercial exploitation of the emerging Grid and Cloud markets needs SLAs to sell computing run times. Job traces show that users have a limited ability to estimate t...
—We propose a probabilistic formulation of joint silhouette extraction and 3D reconstruction given a series of calibrated 2D images. Instead of segmenting each image separately i...
Abstract. We propose generalizations of the Global Cardinality Constraint (gcc) in which a partition of the variables is given. In the context of resource allocation problems, such...
This article presents a robust EDA for global optimization with real parameters. The approach is based on the linear combination of individuals of two populations. One is the curr...
Global Computing achieves high throughput computing by harvesting a very large number of unused computing resources connected to the Internet. This parallel computing model target...
