Efficient and robust metacomputing requires the decomposition of complex jobs into tasks that must be scheduled on distributed processing nodes. There are various ways of creating...
The business of software development is solving problems. Following Polya, we can increase our ability to solve problems by focusing directly on problems themselves, on their part...
Image-space simplifications have been used to accelerate the calculation of computer graphic images since the dawn of visual simulation. Texture mapping has been used to provide a...
Memory profiling is the process of characterizing a program's memory behavior by observing and recording its response to specific input sets. Relevant aspects of the program&...
We show that various duals that occur in optimization and constraint satisfaction can be classified as inference duals, relaxation duals, or both. We discuss linear programming, su...
