—P2P storage systems use replication to provide a certain level of availability. While the system must generate new replicas to replace replicas lost to permanent failures, it ca...
Numerous Grids have been created during the last years. Most of these Grids work in isolation and with different utilisation levels. As the resource utilisation within a Grid has ...
In this paper, we propose a new and general preprocessor algorithm, called CSRoulette, which converts any cost-insensitive classification algorithms into cost-sensitive ones. CSRou...
In a sensor network the sensors, or nodes, obtain data and have to communicate these data to a central node. Because sensors are battery powered they are highly energy constrained....

Corpus-based methods for natural language processing often use supervised training, requiring expensive manual annotation of training corpora. This paper investigates methods for ...
