Determinism is mandatory for replicating distributed objects with strict consistency guarantees. Multithreaded execution of method invocations is a source of nondeterminism, but h...
— In this paper, we describe the real-time and precise self collision detection system that does not reduce the number of polygons and checks more than 100 collision pairs in rea...
— Vision is one of the most powerful sensory modalities in robotics, allowing operation in dynamic environments. One of our long-term research interests is mobile manipulation, w...
We describe a method for predicting query difficulty in a precision-oriented web search task. Our approach uses visual features from retrieved surrogate document representations (...

Computing aggregates over distributed data sets constitutes an interesting class of distributed queries. Recent advances in peer-to-peer discovery of data sources and query process...
