We present a post-processing technique that selectively reduces the salience of distracting regions in an image. Computational models of attention predict that texture variation i...
We investigate scalable algorithms for automated composition (WSC) of Semantic Web Services. Our notion of WSC is very general: the composition semantics includes background knowl...
This paper presents an application-specific, heterogeneous multiprocessor synthesis system, named HeMPS, that combines a form of Evolutionary Computation known as Differential Evo...
A research prototype is presented for semantic indexing and retrieval in Information Retrieval. The prototype is motivated by a desire to provide a more efficient and effective in...
In this paper we analyze the I/O access patterns of a widely-used biological sequence search tool and implement two variations that employ parallel-I/O for data access based on PV...
