This paper presents a practical technique to automatically compute approximations of polygonal representations of 3D objects. It is based on a previously developed model simplific...
An indexing model is the heart of an Information Retrieval (IR) system. Data structures such as term based inverted indices have proved to be very effective for IR using vector sp...
Recently proposed usage control concept and models extend traditional access control models with features for contemporary distributed computing systems, including continuous acce...
The global health, threatened by emerging infectious diseases, pandemic influenza, and biological warfare, is becoming increasingly dependent on the rapid acquisition, processing,...
We give a constant factor approximation algorithm for the following generalization of the k-median problem. We are given a set of clients and facilities in a metric space. Each fa...
