Peer-to-peer content dissemination applications suffer immensely from freeriders, i.e., nodes that do not provide their fair share. The Tit-for-Tat (TfT) incentives have received ...
— In this paper, we approach the gate sizing problem in VLSI circuits in the context of increasing variability of process and circuit parameters as technology scales into the nan...
Evolutionary algorithms tend to produce solutions that are not evolvable: Although current fitness may be high, further search is impeded as the effects of mutation and crossover ...
We present a new approach for the coarse segmentation of tubular structures in 3D image data. Our algorithm, which requires only few initial values and minimal user interaction, c...
—In this paper, we conduct extensive simulations to understand the properties of the overlay generated by BitTorrent. We start by analyzing how the overlay properties impact the ...
