This paper denes and describes the properties of a multicast virtual topology, the M-array, and a resource-ecient variation, the REM-array. It is shown how several collective op...
In this paper we describe a rule-based approach to semantic specification that can be used to establish semantic agreement between a source and receiver. Query processing techniqu...
We present a method for extracting a hierarchical, rigid skeleton from a set of example poses. We then use this skeleton to not only reproduce the example poses, but create new de...
We present an efficient algorithm for maintaining the boundary and surface area of protein molecules as they undergo conformational changes. We also describe a robust implementati...
