Sparse coding is a key principle that underlies wavelet representation of natural images. In this paper, we explain that the effort of seeking a common wavelet sparse coding of i...
Embracing service-oriented architectures in the context of large systems, such as the Web, rises a set of new and challenging issues: increased size and load in terms of users and...
The aim of this short paper is to present a general method of using background knowledge to impose constraints in conceptual clustering of object-attribute relational data. The pr...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) storage is a promising technology to provide users with cheap and online persistence. However, due the instability of these infrastructures, P2P storage systems...
In this paper we develop, implement and evaluate an approach to quickly reassign resources for a virtualized utility computing platform. The approach provides this platform agilit...
