This paper examines the performance benefits of employing multicast communication and application-level multithreading in the Brazos software distributed shared memory (DSM) syste...
Background modeling and subtraction is a fundamental task in many computer vision and video processing applications. We present a novel probabilistic background modeling and subtr...
Middleware for smart items can facilitate the coordinated execution of distributed components for early data processing. These components can be deployed to different nodes in the...
A wide-area sensor system is a complex, dynamic, resource-rich cloud of Internet-connected sensing devices. In this paper, we propose X-Tree Programming, a novel database-centric ...
Modern operating systems frequently support applications with a variety of timing constraints including hard real-time, soft real-time, and best-effort. To guarantee performance, ...
