Abstract. We develop a generic framework for deriving linear-size problem kernels for NP-hard problems on planar graphs. We demonstrate the usefulness of our framework in several c...
— It is through our mental models of the world that we understand it. Advances in science are nothing more than improvements to the model. This paper presents the development and...
In this paper we propose a new approach for scheduling data parallel applications on the Grid using irregular array distributions. We implement the scheduler as a new case study fo...
- Middleware technologies change so rapidly that designers must adapt existing software architectures to incorporate new emerging ones. This paper proposes tectural pattern and gui...
— Faults in WSN are very common and appear in different levels of the system. For pervasive applications to be adopted by end-users there is a need for autonomic selfhealing. Thi...
