A variety of digital watermarking applications have emerged recently that require the design of systems for embedding one signal (the "embedded signal" or "watermar...
Efficient query processing is one of the basic needs for data mining algorithms. Clustering algorithms, association rule mining algorithms and OLAP tools all rely on efficient quer...
We introduce dependence-based pre-computation as a complement to history-based target prediction schemes. We present pre-computation in the context of virtual function calls (v-ca...
Providing Quality of Service (QOS) in an efficient and scalable manner in the Internet is a topic of active research. The technologies that have drawn the most attention are Integ...
In image-based rendering, images acquired from a scene are used to represent the scene itself. A number of reference images are required to fully represent even the simplest scene...
