In this paper, we develop an acyclic network of queues for the design of a dynamic flow shop, where each service station represents a machine. The orders arrive at the input stati...

In a distributed system, replication of components, such as objects, is a well known way of achieving availability. For increased availability, crashed and disconnected components...
The problem of similarity search (query-by-content) has attracted much research interest. It is a difficult problem because of the inherently high dimensionality of the data. The ...
Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) provides a framework for coordinated decision making by a team of agents. Often, during the decision making, capacity constraints on age...
We develop a framework for the image segmentation problem based on a new graph-theoretic formulation of clustering. The approach is motivated by the analogies between the intuitiv...
