The idea of containment sets (csets) is due to Walster and Hansen, and the theory is mainly due to the first author. Now that floating point computation with infinities is widely a...
The quadtree data structure is widely used in digital image processing and computer graphics for modeling spatial segmentation of images and surfaces. A quadtree is a tree in whic...

Pervasive computing introduces data management requirements that must be tackled in a growingvariety of lightweight computing devices. Personal folders on chip, networks of sensor...
This paper develops rare event simulation methods for the estimation of portfolio credit risk -- the risk of losses to a portfolio resulting from defaults of assets in the portfol...
Wireless transmission of a bit can require over 1000 times more energy than a single 32-bit computation. It would therefore seem desirable to perform significant computation to re...
