Empirical modeling of the score distributions associated with retrieved documents is an essential task for many retrieval applications. In this work, we propose modeling the releva...
Communication of large data volumes is a core functionality of distributed systems middleware, namely, for interconnecting components, for distributed computation and for fault tol...
In this paper, we introduce a cross-layer diversity framework for multi-air interface wireless communication devices. As an initial step, we focus on devices, of the cellular phone...
Vector prefix and reduction are collective communication primitives in which all processors must cooperate. We present two parallel algorithms, the direct algorithm and the split ...
We present a flexible skeleton for implementing distributed work pools in our parallel functional language Eden. The skeleton manages a pool of tasks (work pool) in a distributed ...
