The construction of multicast trees is complicated by the need to balance a number of important objectives, including: minimizing latencies, minimizing depth/hops, and bounding th...
We present a scalable parallel implementation for converting a Bayesian network to a junction tree, which can then be used for a complete parallel implementation for exact inferen...
The use of software diversity has often been discussed in the research literature as an effective means to break up the software monoculture present on the Internet and to thus p...
