Abstract— Service placement is a key problem in communication networks as it determines how efficiently the user service demands are supported. This problem has been traditional...
—We consider a Ferry based Wireless Local Area Network (FWLAN), in which information is forwarded from a base station to sensors, or gathered from sensors to a base station using...
We propose a novel objective function for discriminatively tuning log-linear machine translation models. Our objective explicitly optimizes the BLEU score of expected n-gram count...
This paper introduces a Combinatory Optimization Problem (COP) which captures the performance in cooperation of a P2P Streaming Network, considered at the buffer level. A new famil...
Blocked-execution multiprocessor architectures continuously run atomic blocks of instructions — also called Chunks. Such architectures can boost both performance and software pr...
