We present a new series of distributed constraint satisfaction algorithms, the distributed breakout algorithms, which is inspired by local search algorithms for solving the constr...
: Random walk and flooding are basic mechanisms for searching unstructured overlays. This paper shows that node coverage is an important metric for query performance in random grap...
Abstract—We study the performance of several search algorithms on unstructured peer-to-peer networks, both using classic search algorithms such as flooding and random walk, as w...
This paper reports results of an empirical examination of the facilitating role of experimentation and socialisation in enhancing individual knowledge and performance in decision ...
We propose a new method for detecting objects such as bags carried by pedestrians depicted in short video sequences. In common with earlier work on the same problem, the method sta...
