Performance non-determinism in computer systems complicates evaluation, use, and even development of these systems. In performance evaluation via benchmarking and simulation, nond...
Distributed Virtual Computer (DVC) is a computing environment which simplifies the development and execution of distributed applications on computational grids. DVC provides a sim...
—This paper presents the performance analysis of a grid-enabled MIP solver in a grid environment consisting of three clusters on a campus LAN. In particular, the paper focuses on...
In this paper we present an efficient countermeasure against code injection attacks. Our countermeasure does not rely on secret values such as stack canaries and protects against a...
In this paper, XfaceEd, our open source, platform independent tool for authoring 3D embodied conversational agents (ECAs) is presented. Following MPEG-4 Facial Animation (FA) stan...
