We describe a slightly subexponential time algorithm for learning parity functions in the presence of random classification noise, a problem closely related to several cryptograph...
In this paper, we present the design and implementation of Dodo, an e cient user-level system for harvesting idle memory in o -the-shelf clusters of workstations. Dodo enables dat...
The vector-clock size necessary to characterize causality in a distributed computation is bounded by the dimension of the partial order induced by that computation. In an arbitrar...
Presently, many distributed multimedia systems adapt to their changing environments and Quality of Service (QoS) requirements by exchanging control and feedback data between server...
Both, the number and the size of spatial databases, such as geographic or medical databases, are rapidly growing because of the large amount of data obtained from satellite images,...
