Services like Amazon’s Mechanical Turk have opened the door for exploration of processes that outsource computation to humans. These human computation processes hold tremendous ...
The POEMS project is creating an environment for end-to-end performance modeling of complex parallel and distributed systems, spanning the domains of application software, runti...
—In this paper, we investigate data parallelism in exact inference with respect to arbitrary junction trees. Exact inference is a key problem in exploring probabilistic graphical...
Object-based parallel and distributed applications are becoming increasingly popular, driven by the programmability advantages of component technology and a flat shared-object spa...
