— How similar are two data-cubes? In other words, the question under consideration is: given two sets of points in a multidimensional hierarchical space, what is the distance val...
We introduce a simple new model of distributed computation — finite-state symmetric graph automata (FSSGA) — which captures the qualitative properties common to fault-toleran...
Background: Modern biology has shifted from "one gene" approaches to methods for genomic-scale analysis like microarray technology, which allow simultaneous measurement ...
Hardware prefetching is a simple and effective technique for hiding cache miss latency and thus improving the overall performance. However, it comes with addition of prefetch buff...
The cpquantile of an ordered sequenceof data values is the element with rank ‘pn, where n is the total number of values. Accurate estimates of quantiles are required for the sol...
