The asymptotic distribution of estimates that are based on a sub-optimal search for the maximum of the log-likelihood function is considered. In particular, estimation schemes that...
In this paper we propose and evaluate the Adaptive++ technique, a novel runtime-only data prefetching strategy for software-based distributed shared-memory systems (software DSMs)...

The MPI programming model hides network type and topology from developers, but also allows them to seamlessly distribute a computational job across multiple cores in both an intra ...
Background: Natural selection eliminates detrimental and favors advantageous phenotypes. This process leaves characteristic signatures in underlying genomic segments that can be r...
Several peer-to-peer systems for live streaming have been recently deployed (e.g. CoolStreaming, PPLive, SopCast). These all rely on distributed, epidemic-style dissemination mech...
