In this paper we analyse the requirements of performing parallel transaction-oriented simulations within loosely coupled systems like Ad Hoc Grids. We focus especially on the spac...
This paper describes a content-based image retrieval system that employs both higher-level and lower-level vision methodologies separately and in conjunction for the retrieval of ...
This paper describes an approach to the feature location problem for distributed systems, that is, to the problem of locating which code components are important in providing a pa...
We study efficient query processing in distributed web search engines with global index organization. The main performance bottleneck in this case is due to the large amount of i...
