We propose a new fast facial-feature extraction technique for embedded face-recognition applications. A deformable feature model is adopted, of which the parameters are optimized t...
Abstract. We give an algorithm that locally improves the fit between two proteins modeled as space-filling diagrams. The algorithm defines the fit in purely geometric terms and...

A primary goal of high-level modeling is to efficiently explore a broad design space, converging on an optimal or near-optimal system architecture before moving to a more detaile...

We introduce the hash history mechanism for capturing dependencies among distributed replicas. Hash histories, consisting of a directed graph of version hashes, are independent of...
This paper discusses the techniques of performing distributed page ranking on top of structured peer-to-peer networks. Distributed page ranking are needed because the size of the ...
