Towards Identifying Lateral Gene Transfer Events
This paper is concerned with evaluating the performance of the model and algorithm in [7] for detecting lateral gene transfers events. Using a Poisson process to describe arrival t...

Towards optimal sleep scheduling in sensor networks for rare-event detection
— Lifetime maximization is one key element in the design of sensor-network-based surveillance applications. We propose a protocol for node sleep scheduling that guarantees a boun...

A Comparison of RESTART Implementations
The RESTART method is a widely applicable simulation technique for the estimation of rare event probabilities. The method is based on the idea to restart the simulation in certain...

MaTCH : Mapping Data-Parallel Tasks on a Heterogeneous Computing Platform Using the Cross-Entropy Heuristic
We propose in this paper a heuristic for mapping a set of interacting tasks of a parallel application onto a heterogeneous computing platform such as a computational grid. Our nov...

Metrics for Parallel Job Scheduling and Their Convergence
The arrival process of jobs submitted to a parallel system is bursty, leading to fluctuations in the load at many time scales. In particular, rare events of extreme load may occu...
