In this paper we suggest how several competing image denoising algorithms, differing in design parameters, or even in design principles, can be combined together to yield a better...
Wide-area distributed systems like computational grids are emergent infrastructures for high-performance parallel applications. On these systems, communication mechanisms have to ...
The decomposition of large systems into parts is a general principle of software design. Even more, in the scope of distributed systems a partition of the whole system into distri...
This paper introduces volume leases as a mechanism for providing cache consistency for large-scale, geographically distributed networks. Volume leases are a variation of leases, w...

Database replication protocols have historically been built on top of distributed database systems, and have consequently been designed and implemented using distributed transacti...
