A Scheduling Framework That Makes Any Disk Schedulers Non-Work-Conserving Solely Based on Request Characteristics
Exploiting spatial locality is critical for a disk scheduler to achieve high throughput. Because of the high cost of disk head seeks and the non-preemptible nature of request serv...

Level Set Segmentation with Both Shape and Intensity Priors
We present a new variational level-set-based segmentation formulation that uses both shape and intensity prior information learned from a training set. By applying Bayes’ rule...
