Abstract-- Fountain codes are designed so that all input symbols can be recovered from a slightly larger number of coded symbols, with high probability using an iterative decoder. ...
I present a general framework for observing and controlling a distributed computation and its applications to distributed debugging. Algorithms for observation are useful in distr...
Program understanding is central to the development of distributed computations, from the initial coding phase, through testing and debugging, to maintenance and support. Our goal...
Image processing applications (IPA) requirements can be best met by using the distributed environment. The authors had developed an environment over a network of VAX/VMS and Unix f...
We describe and evaluate experimentally a method for clustering words according to their distribution in particular syntactic contexts. Words are represented by the relative frequ...
