In global computing applications the availability of a mechanism for some form of committed choice can be useful, and sometimes necessary. It can conveniently handle, e.g., distrib...
DCT-based digital video coding standards such as MPEG and H.26x have been widely adopted for multimedia applications. Thus video processing in the DCT domain usually proves to be ...
This paper considers the environment of interleaved, multi-channel measurements as arises for example in time-interleaved A/D converters and in distributed sensor networks. Such s...
We introduce a new approach to approximating weighted Max-SAT problems that is based on simplifying a given instance, and then tightening the approximation. First, we relax its str...
Fluorescent protein microscopy imaging is nowadays one of the most important tools in biomedical research. However, the resulting images present a low signal to noise ratio and a ...
