Abstract Most ranking algorithms are based on the optimization of some loss functions, such as the pairwise loss. However, these loss functions are often different from the criter...
We present a rigorous framework that defines a class of net weighting schemes in which unconstrained minimization is successively performed on a weighted objective. We show that, ...
We propose a probabilistic network model, called asynchronous bounded expected delay (ABE), which requires a known bound on the expected message delay. In ABE networks all asynchr...
In three-tiered web applications, some form of admission control is required to ensure that throughput and response times are not significantly harmed during periods of heavy load....
FPGA-based computing engines have become a promising option for the implementation of computationally intensive applications due to high flexibility and parallelism. However, one...
