Abstract. The iris is currently accepted as one of the most accurate traits for biometric purposes. However, for the sake of accuracy, iris recognition systems rely on good quality...
We describe and analyze a 3-state one-way population protocol to compute approximate majority in the model in which pairs of agents are drawn uniformly at random to interact. Given...
So far, performance and reliability of circuits have been determined by worst-case characterization of silicon and environmental noise. As new deep sub-micron technologies exacerb...
Network distance, measured as round-trip latency between hosts, is important for the performance of many Internet applications. For example, nearest server selection and proximity...
To achieve higher efficiency over their unstructured counterparts, structured peer-to-peer systems hold each node responsible for serving a specified set of keys and correctly r...
