Abstract. Invariants that incrementally maintain the value of expresder assignments to their variables are a natural abstraction to build high-level local search algorithms. But th...
We study the usefulness of intermediate semantic concepts in bridging the semantic gap in automatic video retrieval. The results of a series of large-scale retrieval experiments, w...
Cache memories are mandatory to bridge the growing gap between CPU speed and main memory access time. Standard cache organizations improve the average execution time but are diffi...
As processor speeds increase relative to memory speeds, memory bandwidth is rapidly becoming the limiting performance factor for many applications. Several approaches to bridging ...
User logs of search engines have recently been applied successfully to improve various aspects of web search quality. In this paper, we will apply pairs of user queries and snippe...
