We present an efficient algorithm for exact calculation and minimization of expected waiting times of all passengers using a bank of elevators. The dynamics of the system are rep...
We describe an algorithm for similar-image search which
is designed to be efficient for extremely large collections of
images. For each query, a small response set is selected by...
