We address the problem of seeking the global mode of a density function using the mean shift algorithm. Mean shift, like other gradient ascent optimisation methods, is susceptible...

In this paper, we present an approach for realizing a safe execution environment (SEE) that enables users to “try out” new software (or configuration changes to existing soft...

An asynchronous algorithm is described for rapidly constructing an overlay network in a peer-to-peer system where all nodes can in principle communicate with each other directly t...

Floating-point Sparse Matrix-Vector Multiplication (SpMXV) is a key computational kernel in scientific and engineering applications. The poor data locality of sparse matrices sig...
Many parallel applications from scientific computing use MPI global communication operations to collect or distribute data. Since the execution times of these communication opera...
