— In reliable multicast, data packets can be cached at some nodes such as repair servers for future possible retransmission in loss recovery schemes. How to cache packets to opti...
Parallel independent disks can enhance the performance of external memory (EM) algorithms, but the programming task is often di cult. In this paper we develop randomized variants ...
Leo Harrington surprisingly constructed a machine which can learn any computable function f according to the following criterion (called Bc∗ -identification). His machine, on t...
To efficiently find global patterns from a multi-database, information in each local database must first be mined and summarized at the local level. Then only the summarized infor...
Despite its state-of-the-art performance, the Data Oriented Parsing (DOP) model has been shown to suffer from biased parameter estimation, and the good performance seems more the ...
