We propose an approach to lossy source coding, utilizing ideas from Gibbs sampling, simulated annealing, and Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The idea is to sample a reconstructio...
Model checking software transactional memories (STMs) is difficult because of the unbounded number, length, and delay of concurrent transactions and the unbounded size of the memo...
Any proof of P = NP will have to overcome two barriers: relativization and natural proofs. Yet over the last decade, we have seen circuit lower bounds (for example, that PP does n...
ABSTRACT Intrusion Detection Systems (IDSs) for Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANETs) are indispensable since traditional intrusion prevention based techniques are not strong enough to p...
Research interest in Grid computing has grown significantly over the past five years. Management of distributed resources is one of the key issues in Grid computing. Central to ma...
