We describe research conducted to improve the design and management of notifications in the Jazz collaborative development environment. Scenario-based design was used in conjuncti...
The least squares quantization table (LSQT) method is proposed to accelerate the direct Fourier transform for reconstructing images from nonuniformly sampled data, similar to the ...
We prove that various geometric covering problems, related to the Travelling Salesman Problem cannot be efficiently approximated to within any constant factor unless P = NP. This ...
