We propose a new bandwidth allocation scheme for VBR video tra c in ATM networks. The scheme is tailored to MPEG-coded video sources that require stringent and deterministic quali...
We analyze the structure and evolution of discussion cascades in four popular websites: Slashdot, Barrapunto, Meneame and Wikipedia. Despite the big heterogeneities between these ...
We complete and bring together two pairs of surface constructions that use polynomial pieces of degree (3,3) to associate a smooth surface with a mesh. The two pairs complement ea...
Let F be a collection of n d-variate, possibly partially defined, functions, all algebraic of some constant maximum degree. We present a randomized algorithm that computes the vert...
In this paper we present the Slim-tree, a dynamic tree for organizing metric datasets in pages of fixed size. The Slim-tree uses the "fat-factor" which provides a simple ...
