We introduce a foundational language for modelling applications over global computers whose interconnection structure can be explicitly manipulated. Together with process distribut...
A commonly employed measure of the signal amplification properties of an input/output system is its induced L2 norm, sometimes also known as H gain. In general, however, it is ext...
To solve real-world discrete optimization problems approximately metaheuristics such as simulated annealing and other local search methods are commonly used. For large instances o...
In this paper, we formalize the novel concept of Constrained Reverse k-Nearest Neighbor (CRkNN) search on mobile objects (clients) performed at a central server. The CRkNN query c...
In recent years, content-based image retrieval has become more and more important in many application areas. Similarity retrieval is inherently a very demanding process, in partic...
