Abstract. Motivated by the analogies to statistical physics, the deterministic annealing (DA) method has successfully been demonstrated in a variety of application. In this paper, ...
Generalized geometric programming (GGP) is an optimization method in which the objective function and constraints are nonconvex functions. Thus, a GGP problem includes multiple lo...
Time synchronization is necessary in many distributed systems, but achieving synchronization in sensornets, which combine stringent precision requirements with severe resource con...

We address the problem of computing approximate answers to continuous sliding-window joins over data streams when the available memory may be insufficient to keep the entire join...
Abstract— Replacement policies for general caching applications and Web caching in particular have been discussed extensively in the literature. Many ad-hoc policies have been pr...
