Many web-based systems have a tiered application architecture, in which a request needs to transverse all the tiers before finishing its processing. One of the most important QoS...
In numerous applications of image processing, e.g. astronomical and medical imaging, data-noise is well-modeled by a Poisson distribution. This motivates the use of the negative-lo...
We present STAR, a self-tuning algorithm that adaptively sets numeric precision constraints to accurately and efficiently answer continuous aggregate queries over distributed data...

— This paper presents a fast analytical method for estimating the throughput of pipelined asynchronous systems, and then applies that method to develop a fast solution to the pro...
In this paper, we present a novel PDE based error concealment algorithm. We formulate the error concealment problem as a sequential optimization problem with both smoothing and or...
