We examine a class of collective coin- ipping games that arises from randomized distributed algorithms with halting failures. In these games, a sequence of local coin ips is gener...
We propose two methods for constructing automated programs for extraction of information from a class of web pages that are very common and of high practical significance - varia...
We introduce a parallel approximation of an Over-determined Laplacian Partial Differential Equation solver (ODETLAP) applied to the compression and restoration of terrain data use...
