Truly successful models for component-based software development continue to prove elusive. One of the few is the use of operating system, database and similar programs in many sy...
To make multimedia data easily retrieved, we use metadata to describe the information, so that search engines or other information filter tools can effectively and efficiently loc...
One of the mostsoughtaftersoftware innovation of thisdecade is the construction of systems using off-the-shelf workstations that actually deliver, and even surpass, the power and ...
Sparse matrix-vector multiplication forms the heart of iterative linear solvers used widely in scientific computations (e.g., finite element methods). In such solvers, the matrix-v...
In this paper we develop a novel probabilistic model of computational trust that allows agents to exchange and combine reputation reports over heterogeneous, correlated multi-dime...
