This paper describes some basic experiments to see how fast various popular scripting and user-interface languages run on a spectrum of representative tasks. We found enormous var...
Modern high speed interconnects such as Myrinet and Gigabit Ethernet have shifted the bottleneck in communication from the interconnect to the messaging software at the sending an...
We present an original approach to identifying sequence variants in a mixed DNA population from sequence trace data. The heart of the method is based on parsimony: given a wildtyp...
We present an algorithm which robustly computes the intersection curve(s) of an under-constrained piecewise polynomial system consisting of n equations with n + 1 unknowns. The so...
Abstract. Many applications benefit from user location data, but location data raises privacy concerns. Anonymization can protect privacy, but identities can sometimes be inferred...
