This paper presents a general model for estimating access times of serpentine tape drives. The model is used to schedule I/O requests in order to minimize the total access time. W...
In this paper we propose a scaling-up method that is applicable to essentially any induction algorithm based on discrete search. The result of applying the method to an algorithm ...
— A pan-tilt-zoom robotic camera can provide detailed live video of selected areas of interest within a large potential viewing field. To provide spatial context for human obser...
— The frame-layer bit allocation problem for H.264 is studied in this work. We first impose a GOP (Group of Pictures) structure on the underlying H.264 video, and then develop a...
The notion of distributed functional monitoring was recently introduced by Cormode, Muthukrishnan and Yi [CMY08] to initiate a formal study of the communication cost of certain fu...
