The dominant existing routing strategies employed in peerto-peer(P2P) based information retrieval(IR) systems are similarity-based approaches. In these approaches, agents depend o...
This paper presents a new method for building domain-specific web search engines. Previous methods eliminate irrelevant documents from the pages accessed using heuristics based on...
We address the problem of performance and power-efficient thread allocation in a CMP. To that end, based on analytical model, we introduce a parameterized performance/power metric ...
Credit institutions are seldom faced with problems dealing with single objectives. Often, decisions involving optimizing two or more competing goals simultaneously need to be made...
