Many large scale systems, like grids and structured peer to peer systems, operate on a constrained topology. Since underlying networks do not expose the real topology to the appli...
In some video coding applications, it is desirable to reduce the complexity of the video encoder at the expense of a more complex decoder. Distributed Video (DV) Coding is a new p...
This paper presents the first polylogarithmic-competitive online algorithms for two-metric network design problems. These problems arise naturally in the design of computer netwo...
It has been known since the work of Carlsson and Weinshall that there is a dualization principle that allows one to interchange the role of points being viewed by several cameras ...
Differential evolution (DE) has emerged as one of the fast, robust, and efficient global search heuristics of current interest. This paper describes an application of DE to the aut...
