The aim of query-based sampling is to obtain a sufficient, representative sample of an underlying (text) collection. Current measures for assessing sample quality are too coarse gr...
This paper realizes techniques supporting the position that strategies for resource location and discovery in distributed systems should be both perturbation-resistant and overlay...
We consider the problem of designing fast and strategyproof exchanges for dynamic resource allocation problems in distributed systems. The exchange is implemented as a sequence of...
The problem of scheduling a set of sporadic tasks that share a set of serially reusable, single unit software resources on a single processor is considered. The correctness condit...
Large scale / mega projects are lengthy complex endeavors that require significant planning by management, engineers and construction personnel to ensure the success of the projec...
