Distributed key-value stores are now a standard component of high-performance web services and cloud computing applications. While key-value stores offer significant performance...
We consider the problem of the exact simulation of random variables Z that satisfy the distributional identity Z L = V Y + (1 − V )Z, where V ∈ [0, 1] and Y are independent, an...
Abstract. Many different index structures have been proposed for spatial databases to support efficient query processing. However, most of these index structures suffer from an exp...
Background: Modeling cancer-related regulatory modules from gene expression profiling of cancer tissues is expected to contribute to our understanding of cancer biology as well as...
Abstract. We study probabilistic safe Petri nets, a probabilistic extension of safe Petri nets interpreted under the true-concurrent semantics. In particular, the likelihood of pro...
