— This paper presents a parallel external-memory algorithm for performing a breadth-first traversal of an implicit graph on a cluster of workstations. The algorithm is a paralle...
This paper studies distributed scheduling of parallel I/O data transfers on systems that provide data replication. In our previous work, we proposed a centralized algorithm for so...
To discover knowledge or retrieve information from a relational database, a user often needs to find objects related to certain source objects. There are two main challenges in b...
In this paper, we initiate the study of the approximability of the facility location problem in a distributed setting. In particular, we explore a trade-off between the amount of...
A directed agent implies an agent with high constraints in both recognition and motion. Because of the embodied restrictions, the directed agent perceives a sense of subjective di...
