Branch-and-bound algorithms are general methods applicable to various combinatorial optimization problems and parallelization is one of the most hopeful methods to improve these a...
† In this paper, we propose a parallel randomized algorithm, called Parallel Fast Assignment using Search Technique (PFAST), for scheduling parallel programs represented by direc...
Query substitution is an important problem in information retrieval. Much work focuses on how to find substitutes for any given query. In this paper, we study how to efficiently ...
We present a parallel implementation of a probabilistic algorithm for real time tracking of segments in noisy edge images. Given an initial solution ?a set of segments that reason...
Abstract. We study the implementation on grid systems of an efficient algorithm for demanding global optimization problems. Specifically, we consider problems arising in the geneti...
