The global internet is rich in commodity resources but scarce in specialized resources. We argue that a grid framework can achieve better performance if it separates the management...
Computation in the physical world is restricted by the following spatial locality constraint: In a single unit of time, information can only travel a bounded distance in space. A ...
Abstract. In this paper we suggest a strategy to design job scheduling systems. To this end, we first split a scheduling system into three components: Scheduling policy, objective ...
In this paper we address two important problems in motion analysis: the detection of moving objects and their localization. Statistical and level set approaches are adopted in orde...
The influence of different parallel genetic algorithm (PGA) architectures on the GA convergence properties is analysed. Next, two proposed versions of these PGA architectures are c...
