This paper focuses on online gift exchange in a setting where online and offline interactions are tightly intertwined and most of the exchanges require face-to-face interaction to...
Image descriptors are widely adopted structures to match image features. SIFT-based descriptors are collections of gradient orientation histograms computed on different feature re...
Next-generation high throughput sequencing instruments are capable of generating hundreds of millions of reads in a single run. Mapping those reads to a reference genome is an ext...
This paper is the first extensive performance study of a recently proposed parallel programming model, called Concurrent Collections (CnC). In CnC, the programmer expresses her co...
Data captured from a live cellular network with the real users during their common daily routine help to understand how the users move within the network. Unlike the simulations wi...
