Abstract. In this paper, we propose a Markov chain for sampling a random vector distributed according to a discretized Dirichlet distribution. We show that our Markov chain is rapi...
An instruction set architecture (ISA) suitable for future microprocessor design constraints is proposed. The ISA has hierarchical register files with a small number of accumulator...
We have investigated two major issues in Distributed Information Retrieval (DIR), namely: collection selection and search results merging. While most published works on these two ...
Abstract. In this paper we consider the dictionary problem in the scalable distributed data structure paradigm introduced by Litwin, Neimat and Schneider and analyze costs for inse...
Designers of distributed embedded systems face many challenges in determining the appropriate tradeoffs to make when defining a system architecture or retargeting an existing desi...
