The pervasive adoption of wireless technologies is creating a growing demand for seamless interaction with wireless services. By sharing resources across devices such as PDA'...
Many modern applications, from Grid computing to RSS handling, need to support data processing in a distributed environment. Currently, most such applications are implemented usin...
Middleware is a software layer that stands between the networked operating system and the application and provides well known reusable solutions to frequently encountered problems...
Many scientific, imaging, and geospatial applications produce large high-precision scalar fields sampled on a regular grid. Lossless compression of such data is commonly done usin...
We propose a new transform coding algorithm that integrates all optimization steps into a coherent and consistent framework. Each iteration of the algorithm is designed to minimiz...
