During the development and maintenance of ObjectOriented (OO) software, the information on the classes which are more prone to be changed is very useful. Developers and maintainer...
Resiliency to link failures in optical networks is becoming increasingly important due to the increasing data rate in the fiber. Path protection schemes attempt to guarantee a bac...
A quantitative analysis of program execution is essential to the computer architecture design process. With the current trend in architecture of enhancing the performance of unipr...
We show that the wavefront approach to Voronoi diagrams (a deterministic line sweep algorithm that does not use geometric transform) can be generalized to distance measures more g...
This paper presents a new way of thinking for IR metric optimization. It is argued that the optimal ranking problem should be factorized into two distinct yet interrelated stages:...
