Abstract In this paper we investigate the composition of cheap network storage resources to meet specific availability and capacity requirements. We show that the problem of find...
Stream processing has become increasingly important with emergence of stream applications such as audio/video surveillance, stock price tracing, and sensor data analysis. A challe...
Sampling is an important tool for estimating large, complex sums and integrals over highdimensional spaces. For instance, importance sampling has been used as an alternative to ex...
