Many information retrieval systems use the inverted file as indexing structure. The inverted file, however, is not suited to supporting incremental updates when new documents are ...
We investigate the management of flocking mobile objects using a parallel message-passing computer cluster. An octree, a data structure well-known for use in managing a 3D space, ...
Abstract Fault-tolerant communication in a distributed system requires reliable connection management and message delivery. Reliable connection management includes the guarantee of...
We propose a distributed algorithm to construct a balanced communication tree that serves in gathering data from the network nodes to a sink. Our algorithm constructs a near-optim...
Abstract. We present a scalable and flexible grouping service based on concast and best-effort single-source multicast. The service assigns participating end systems to specific gr...
