We consider a system with a dispatcher and several identical servers in parallel. Task processing times are known upon arrival. We first study the impact of the local scheduling ...
In this paper we discuss the effects of symbiosis when using an attractor selection model for multi-path routing in an overlay network. Attractor selection is a biologically inspi...
This paper deals with an off-line Japanese signature verification using a pattern matching method. An annoying problem encountered in off-line signature verification using a patte...
