A maximal independent set on a graph is an inclusion-maximal set of mutually non-adjacent nodes. This basic symmetry breaking structure is vital for many distributed algorithms, w...
Recent results on sparse coding and independent component analysis suggest that human vision first represents a visual image by a linear superposition of a relatively small number ...
In this paper, we propose a methodology for developing component-based real-time systems based on the concept of hierarchical scheduling. Recently, much work has been devoted to t...
The coalition formation process, in which a number of independent, autonomous agents come together to act as a collective, is an important form of interaction in multi-agent system...
Program analysis and optimizationcan be speeded upthrough the use of the dependence flow graph (DFG), a representation of program dependences which generalizes def-use chains and...
