1 Data distribution and replication in distributed systems require special purpose middleware tools for accessing replicated data. Data Grids, special forms of a systems distribute...
This paper presents an algorithm for recovering the globally optimal 2D human figure detection using a loopy graph model. This is computationally challenging because the time comp...
Autonomic computing – self-configuring, self-healing, self-optimizing applications, systems and networks – is widely believed to be a promising solution to everincreasing syst...
