Abstract. Minimizing the makespan or maximizing the minimum machine load are two of the most important and fundamental parallel machine scheduling problems. In an online scenario, ...
We present an unsupervised algorithm for aligning a pair of shapes in the presence of significant articulated motion and missing data, while assuming no knowledge of a template, u...
The advent of Grid environments made feasible the solution of computational intensive problems in a reliable and cost-effective way. As workflow systems carry out more complex and...
The popularity of distributed file systems continues to grow in last years. The reasons they are preferred over traditional centralized systems include fault tolerance, availabili...
