Mega grids span several continents and may consist of millions of nodes and billions of tasks executing at any point in time. This setup calls for scalable and highly available re...
We consider the problem of admission control in resource sharing systems, such as web servers and transaction processing systems, when the job size distribution has high variabili...
The cpquantile of an ordered sequenceof data values is the element with rank ‘pn, where n is the total number of values. Accurate estimates of quantiles are required for the sol...
Abstract. Consider a system F of n polynomial equations in n unknowns, over an algebraically closed field of arbitrary characteristic. We present a fast method to find a point in...
We propose an integral image based algorithm to extract feature covariance matrices of all possible rectangular regions within a given image. Covariance is an essential indicator ...
