We consider iterative algorithms of the form z := f(z), executed by a parallel or distributed computing system. We focus on asynchronous implementations whereby each processor ite...
Abstract. This paper proposes and presents a comparison of scheduling algorithms applied to the context of load balancing the query traffic on distributed inverted files. We put em...
In this paper, we present an automated, quantitative, knowledge-poor method to evaluate the randomness of a collection of documents (corpus), with respect to a number of biased pa...
We present a semi-parametric latent variable model based technique for density modelling, dimensionality reduction and visualization. Unlike previous methods, we estimate the late...
People have developed a variety of conventions for negotiating face-to-face interruptions. The physical distribution of teams, however, together with the use of computer-mediated ...
