The advent of large scale multi-hop wireless networks highlights problems of fault tolerance and scale in distributed system, motivating designs that autonomously recover from tra...
We present a new and efficient semi-supervised training method for parameter estimation and feature selection in conditional random fields (CRFs). In real-world applications suc...
The neighbourhood function NG(t) of a graph G gives, for each t ∈ N, the number of pairs of nodes x, y such that y is reachable from x in less that t hops. The neighbourhood fun...
Keyword search in relational databases has been extensively studied. Given a relational database, a keyword query finds a set of interconnected tuple structures connected by fore...
Applications such as parallel computing, online games, and content distribution networks need to run on a set of resources with particular network connection characteristics to ge...
