String comparison is a critical issue in many application domains, including speech recognition, contents search, and bioinformatics. The similarity between two strings of lengths...
We present DL8, an exact algorithm for finding a decision tree that optimizes a ranking function under size, depth, accuracy and leaf constraints. Because the discovery of optimal...
For many application-level distributed protocols and parallel algorithms, the set of participants, the number of messages or the interaction structure are only known at run-time. T...
GPU-based heterogeneous clusters continue to draw attention from vendors and HPC users due to their high energy efficiency and much improved single-node computational performance...
As software engineering efforts move to more complex, distributed environments, coordinating the activities of people and tools becomes very important. While groupware systems add...
