Since multimedia data are characterized by continuity and massive volume, compression techniques such as MPEG are used for efficient transmission. However, a transmission error oc...
Abstract Metacomputing is the seamless application of geographically-separated distributed computing resources to user applications. We consider the scheduling of metaapplications;...
Characterizing shared-memory applications provides insight to design efficient systems, and provides awareness to identify and correct application performance bottlenecks. Configu...
There has been substantial recent interest in captured design expertise expressed as design patterns. Prevalent descriptions of these design patterns suffer from two demerits. Firs...
Multidimensional discrete data (MDD), i.e., arrays of arbitrary size, dimension, and base type, are receiving growing attention among the database community. MDD occur in a variet...
