Abstract. This work presents scale invariant region detectors that apply evolved operators to extract an interest measure. We evaluate operators using their repeatability rate, and...
Experimental computer systems research typically ignores the end-user, modeling him, if at all, in overly simple ways. We argue that this (1) results in inadequate performance eva...

Abstract. We study resource management in distributed systems. Incorrect handling of resources may lead to deadlocks, missed deadlines, priority inversions, and other forms of inco...
Networked games can provide groupware developers with important lessons in how to deal with real-world networking issues such as latency, limited bandwidth and packet loss. Games ...
