Geographic information retrieval (GIR) is, as a branch of traditional information retrieval, a discipline that tries to enrich data with geographical information to make it suitab...
A key step in program optimization is the determination of optimal values for code optimization parameters such as cache tile sizes and loop unrolling factors. One approach, which...
We present an inexact search algorithm for the problem of predicting a two-layered dependency graph. The algorithm is based on a k-best version of the standard cubictime search al...
Fractional cascading is a technique designed to allow e cient sequential search in a graph with catalogs of total size n. The search consists of locating a key in the catalogs alo...
Many problems in practically all fields of science, engineering and technology involve global optimization. It becomes more and more important to develop the efficient global opti...
