Boosting-basedmethods have recently led to the state-ofthe-art face detection systems. In these systems, weak classifiers to be boosted are based on simple, local, Haar-like featu...
Faceted browsing is a promising way to incrementally refine data sets. Current approaches do not scale well in terms of screen size and have shortcomings in interacting with hiera...
This paper identifies node affinity as an important property for scalable general-purpose locks. Nonuniform communication architectures (NUCAs), for example CCNUMAs built from a f...
With the gradual adoption of publish/subscribe systems in mission critical areas, it is essential that systems are subjected to rigorous performance analysis before they are put in...
The Gene Ontology (GO) is a controlled vocabulary of terms to describe protein functions. It also includes a hierarchical description of the relationships among the terms in the f...
