Context-based adaptive entropy coding is an essential feature of modern image compression algorithms; however, the design of these coders is non-trivial due to the balance that mu...
The main goal of this research is to improve Information Retrieval Systems by enabling them to generate search outcomes that are relevant and customized to each specific user. Our ...
This paper addresses the problem of identifying the value of information held by a teammate on a distributed, multi-agent team. It focuses on a distributed scheduling task in whic...
A distributed search system consists of a large number of autonomous search servers logically connected in a peerto-peer network. Each search server maintains a local index of a c...
Today, result sets of skyline queries are unmanageable due to their exponential growth with the number of query predicates. In this paper we discuss the incremental re-computation ...
