— In this paper, we propose a novel approach to solve constrained optimization problems based on particle swarm optimization (PSO). First, an empirical comparison of the most pop...
Video segmentation requires the partitioning of a series of images into groups that are both spatially coherent and smooth along the time axis. We formulate segmentation as a Bayes...
Though shared virtual memory (SVM) systems promise low cost solutions for high performance computing, they suffer from long memory latencies. These latencies are usually caused by...
There are many applications for Secure Multi-Party Computation (SMC), but practical adoption is still an issue. One reason is that the business model of the application does not m...
We present an adaptive load shedding approach for windowed stream joins. In contrast to the conventional approach of dropping tuples from the input streams, we explore the concept ...
