Abstract—We introduce a new class of exact MinimumBandwidth Regenerating (MBR) codes for distributed storage systems, characterized by a low-complexity uncoded repair process tha...
—We present the design and implementation of a parallel exact inference algorithm on the Cell Broadband Engine (Cell BE). Exact inference is a key problem in exploring probabilis...
—In partitioning, clustering, and grouping problems, a typical goal is to group together similar objects, or pixels in the case of image processing. At the same time, another goa...
Abstract--The Distributed Stochastic Algorithm (DSA), Distributed Breakout Algorithm (DBA), and variations such as Distributed Simulated Annealing (DSAN), MGM-1, and DisPeL, are di...
—Pocket Switched Networks take advantage of social contacts to opportunistically create data paths over time. This work employs empirical traces to examine the effect of the huma...
