We consider the problem of selecting a subset of p out of n sensors for the purpose of event detection, in a wireless sensor network (WSN). Occurrence or not of the event of intere...
Background: The protein folding problem remains one of the most challenging open problems in computational biology. Simplified models in terms of lattice structure and energy func...
It is considered good distributed computing practice to devise object implementations that tolerate contention, periods of asynchrony and a large number of failures, but perform f...
Complex database queries require the use of memory-intensive operators like sort and hashjoin. Those operators need memory, also referred to as SQL memory, to process their input ...
To model and solve optimization problems arising in public transportation, data about the passengers is necessary and has to be included in the models in any phase of the planning...
