This paper introduces a linear programming (LP) technique that performs ratedistortion based optimization for constrained video coding. Given the assumption of piecewise linear an...
Understanding user intent is key to designing an effective ranking system in a search engine. In the absence of any explicit knowledge of user intent, search engines want to diver...
Purpose – This paper2 discusses the new scientific search service Google Scholar (GS). This search engine, intended for searching exclusively scholarly documents, will be descri...
In this paper we present a cooperative negotiation protocol that solves a distributed resource allocation problem while conforming to soft real-time constraints in a dynamic envir...
