A significant number of new Java-based technologies for mobile code (aka agents) have recently emerged. The 'Aglets' system, from IBM's research labs, provides an e...
The recent success of Internet-based computing projects, coupled with rapid developments in peer-to-peer systems, has stimulated interest in the notion of harvesting idle cycles u...
With the emergence of grid computing environment, performance measurement, analysis and prediction of non-dedicated distributed systems have become increasingly important. In this...
We present an algorithm to reconstruct a collection of disjoint smooth closed curves from noisy samples. Our noise model assumes that the samples are obtained by first drawing po...

We develop a penalized kernel smoothing method for the problem of selecting nonzero elements of the conditional precision matrix, known as conditional covariance selection. This p...
