Ad hoc networks represent a key factor in the evolution of wireless communications. These networks typically consist of equal nodes that communicate without central control, inter...
Abstract. This paper addresses the problem of building scalable semantic overlay networks. Our approach follows the principle of data independence by separating a logical layer, th...
Abstract. The CORBA standard now incorporates support for reliability through two distinct mechanisms — replication (using the Fault Tolerant CORBA standard) and transactions (us...
This paper addresses the problem of automatic detection of salient video segments for real-world applications such as corporate training based on associated speech transcriptions....
In this paper we describe a trellis representation of variable length coded data which is capable of being used for bit-level or symbol-level maximum a posteriori (MAP) decoding o...
