We present a set of techniques to simplify tree models for faster rendering while retaining their visual resemblance to the original model. This goal is achieved by setting a budg...
— This paper examines burst contention resolution problems in optical burst switching (OBS) networks. Since burst contentions take place i) when the network is congested by incre...
On-line analytical processing (OLAP) provides tools to explore and navigate into data cubes in order to extract interesting information. Nevertheless, OLAP is not capable of expla...
Time triggered methods provide deterministic behaviour suitable for critical real-time systems. They perform less favourably, however, if the arrival times of some activities are ...
Blogs are a new form of internet phenomenon and a vast everincreasing information resource. Mining blog files for information is a very new research direction in data mining. We p...
