This paper proposes a content-aware image resizing method which simultaneously preserves both salient image features and important line structure properties: parallelism, collinea...
We propose a probabilistic contract signing protocol that achieves balance even in the presence of an adversary that may delay messages sent over secure channels. To show that this...
Abstract. The development of scalable parallel database systems requires the design of efficient algorithms for the join operation which is the most frequent and expensive operatio...
rees can be used for representing abstract data types such as dictionaries and ordered lists. They work well when the elements are inserted in a random order. Some sequences of ope...
Peer-to-peer (P2P) networks based on consistent hashing functions have an inherent load uneven distribution problem. Things are even worse in unstructured P2P systems. The objecti...
