Multistage residual vector quantizers (RVQ) with optimal direct sum decoder codebooks have been successfully designed and implemented for data compression. Due to its multistage s...
—In this work, for a wireless sensor network (WSN) of n randomly placed sensors with node density λ ∈ [1, n], we study the tradeoffs between the aggregation throughput and gat...
As XQuery rapidly emerges as the standard for querying XML documents, it is very important to understand the architectural characteristics and behaviors of such workloads. A lot o...
Macro tree transducers (mtt) are an important model that both covers many useful XML transformations and allows decidable exact typechecking. This paper reports our first step tow...
Complex environmental modeling often involves a large number of unknown physical and ecological parameters. Parameter estimation is one of the most difficult steps in many modelin...
