Abstract. The vast majority of papers on distributed computing assume that processes are assigned unique identifiers before computation begins. But is this assumption necessary? W...
Nearest Neighbor Search on Multimedia Indexing Structures Multimedia databases get larger and larger in our days, and this trend is expected to continue in the future. There are v...
We study the power of reliable anonymous distributed systems, where processes do not fail, do not have identifiers, and run identical programmes. We are interested specifically i...
It seems likely that humans build internal models of objects that they explore haptically, and that the complexity of an internal model is not necessarily associated with complex ...
In this paper, we augment existing techniques for simulating flexible objects to include models for crack initiation and propagation in three-dimensional volumes. By analyzing th...
