A common approach to parallelizing simulated annealing to generate several perturbations to the current solution simultaneously, requiring synchronization to guarantee correct eva...
Autonomous mobile programs (AMPs) offer a novel decentralised load management technology where periodic use is made of cost models to decide where to execute in a network. In this...
This paper presents techniques to apply semi-CRFs to Named Entity Recognition tasks with a tractable computational cost. Our framework can handle an NER task that has long named e...
A protocol for a distributed hash table (DHT) incurs communication costs to keep up with churn—changes in membership—in order to maintain its ability to route lookups efficie...
