In image guided surgery, the registration of preand intra-operative image data is an important issue. In registrations, we seek an estimate of the transformation that registers th...
In a distributed computing system (DCS), we need to allocate a number of modules to different processors for execution. It is desired to maximize the processor synergism in order...
Grid computing systems utilize distributive owned and geographically dispersed resources for providing a wide variety of services for various applications. It is possible that the...
This paper presents an approach to automatically optimize the retrieval quality of ranking functions. Taking a Swarm Intelligence perspective, we present a novel method, SwarmRank...
