Shor has showed how to perform fault tolerant quantum computation when the probability for an error in a qubit or a gate, η, decays with the size of the computation polylogarithmi...
A connection management protocol establishes a connection between two hosts across a wide-area network to allow reliable message delivery. Following previous work of Kleinberg et a...
Shared memory in a parallel computer provides prowith the valuable abstraction of a shared address space--through which any part of a computation can access any datum. Although un...
A fundamental task in artificial intelligence and computer vision is to build machines that can behave like a human in recognizing a broad range of visual concepts. This paper aims...
We define a simple collection of operations for creating and manipulating record structures, where records are intended as finite associations of values to labels. A second-order ...
