The "bag-of-frames" approach (BOF) to audio pattern recognition models signals as the long-term statistical distribution of their local spectral features, a prototypical...
Control of large distributed cloud-based services is a challenging problem. The Distributed Rate Limiting (DRL) paradigm was recently proposed as a mechanism for tackling this pro...
We exemplify an optimization criterion for divide-and-conquer algorithms with a technique called generic competitive graph search. The technique is then applied to solve two probl...
Ensuring model quality is a key success factor in many computer science areas, and becomes crucial in recent software engineering paradigms like the one proposed by model-driven s...
Social insect societies and more specifically ant colonies, are distributed systems that, in spite of the simplicity of their individuals, present a highly structured social organi...
