Reader preference, writer preference, and task-fair reader-writer locks are shown to cause undue blocking in multiprocessor real-time systems. Phase-fair reader writer locks, a ne...
We show how global constraints such as transitivity can be treated intensionally in a Zero-One Integer Linear Programming (ILP) framework which is geared to find the optimal and c...
In this paper we propose a novel method for generic object localization. The method is based on modeling the object as a graph at two levels: a local substructural representation ...
Similarity search usually encounters a serious problem in the high dimensional space, known as the “curse of dimensionality”. In order to speed up the retrieval efficiency, p...
— Routing protocols often keep track of multiple route metrics, where some metrics are more important than others. Route selection is then based on lexicographic comparison: the ...
