Control of large distributed cloud-based services is a challenging problem. The Distributed Rate Limiting (DRL) paradigm was recently proposed as a mechanism for tackling this pro...
The quantum adversary method is one of the most successful techniques for proving lower bounds on quantum query complexity. It gives optimal lower bounds for many problems, has ap...
In this paper, we consider the problem of supporting fault tolerance for adaptive and time-critical applications in heterogeneous and unreliable grid computing environments. Our g...
—Differential evolution (DE) is arguably one of the most powerful stochastic real-parameter optimization algorithms in current use. DE operates through similar computational step...
Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) has become one of the most active research areas in computer science. Relevance feedback is often used in CBIR systems to bridge the semantic ...
