Discovery of sequential patterns is becoming increasingly useful and essential in many scienti c and commercial domains. Enormous sizes of available datasets and possibly large nu...
We consider iterative algorithms of the form z := f(z), executed by a parallel or distributed computing system. We focus on asynchronous implementations whereby each processor ite...
: This paper introduces an efficient hierarchical algorithm capable of simulating light transfer for complex scenes containing non-diffuse surfaces. The algorithmstemsfroma newfor...
The parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) is a prototype of a new kind of a distributed algorithm. It is based on a parallel search by individuals all of which have the complete proble...
This paper studies the QoS-aware replica placement problem. Although there has been much work on replica placement problem, most of them concerns average system performance and ign...
