We propose a new fault tolerance metric for XOR-based erasure codes: the minimal erasures list (MEL). A minimal erasure is a set of erasures that leads to irrecoverable data loss ...
Abstract. A useful ability for search engines is to be able to rank objects with novelty and diversity: the top k documents retrieved should cover possible interpretations of a que...
In this paper, we consider the clustering of resources on large scale platforms. More precisely, we target parallel applications consisting of independant tasks, where each task is...

One of the most important problems to solve in Solid Modeling is computing boolean operations for solids (union, intersection and difference). In this paper we present a method to...
There has been a rapid technical progress in three-dimensional (3D) computer graphics. But gathering surface and texture data is yet a laborious task. This paper addresses the pro...
