In this work we report on data gathered via a deployment of a monitoring and benchmarking infrastructure on two production grid platforms, TeraGrid and Geon. Our result show that t...
Abstract--Packet-combining schemes are an attractive improvement to ARQ schemes, since they allow receivers to keep the good parts of an otherwise erroneous packet and use these wi...
The global search properties of heuristic search algorithms are not well understood. In this paper, we introduce a new metric, mobility, that quantifies the dispersion of local o...

We investigate the phenomenon of non-recursive trade-offs between descriptional systems in an abstract fashion. We aim at categorizing non-recursive trade-offs by bounds on their g...
We consider selected geometric properties of 2D or 3D sets, given in form of binary digital pictures, and discuss their estimation. The properties examined are perimeter and area i...
