The concepts of similarity and distance are crucial in data mining. We consider the problem of defining the distance between two data sets by comparing summary statistics compute...
High quality of security is increasingly critical for applications running on heterogeneous distributed systems. However, existing scheduling algorithms for heterogeneous distribu...
This paper presents a system for modeling lichens and simulating their propagation and growth in a virtual scene. Lichens colonize almost every substrate in nature and play an imp...
In order to populate virtual cities, it is necessary to specify the behaviour of dynamic entities such as pedestrians or car drivers. Since a complete mental model based on vision...
A technique is proposed for smoothing a broken line fit, with known break points, to observational data. It will be referred to as "broken line smoothing". The smoothness...
