We observe increasing interest in aggregating geographically distributed, heterogeneous resources to perform large scale computations. MPI remains the most popular programming par...
One of the critical problems in the call center industries is the staffing problem since they must face variable demands and because staff costs represent a major part of the cost...
Abstract. We investigate bottom-up and top-down deterministic automata on unranked trees. We show that for an appropriate definition of bottom-up deterministic automata it is poss...
Our main goal in this paper is to study the scheduling of parallel BSP tasks on clusters of computers. We focus our attention on special characteristics of BSP tasks, which can use...
In applications such as fraud and intrusion detection, it is of great interest to measure the evolving trends in the data. We consider the problem of quantifying changes between tw...
