Today, several data-storage systems allow applications to create and manage custom metadata to improve data search and navigability in large-scale storage systems. Our thesis is t...
. We consider the Distributed Cognition paradigm as a framework for implementing artificial components of human cognition. We take email/internet search as a setting of distributed...
Following a number of recent papers investigating the possibility of optimal comparison-based optimization algorithms for a given distribution of probability on fitness functions...
A wireless sensor network is characterized as a massively distributed and deeply embedded system. Such a system requires concurrent and asynchronous event handling as a distributed...
We consider boosting algorithms that maintain a distribution over a set of examples. At each iteration a weak hypothesis is received and the distribution is updated. We motivate t...
