External sorting--the process of sorting a file that is too large to fit into the computer's internal memory and must be stored externally on disks--is a fundamental subroutin...
Abstract--Determinant Quantum Monte Carlo (DQMC) simulation has been widely used to reveal macroscopic properties of strong correlated materials. However, parallelization of the DQ...
Abstract Competition and cooperation can boost the performance of a combinatorial search process. Both can be implemented with a portfolio of algorithms which run in parallel, give...
In this paper a novel recursive method for estimating structure and motion from image sequences is presented. The novelty lies in the fact that the output of the algorithm is inde...
One frequently studied problem in the context of information dissemination in communication networks is the broadcasting problem. In this paper, we study the following randomized b...
