— In location-based services, users with location-aware mobile devices are able to make queries about their surroundings anywhere and at any time. While this ubiquitous computing...
We consider the problem of indexing high-dimensional data for answering (approximate) similarity-search queries. Similarity indexes prove to be important in a wide variety of sett...
Deadlock in multithreaded programs is an increasingly important problem as ubiquitous multicore architectures force parallelization upon an ever wider range of software. This pape...
Abstract-- Field-programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) can provide performance advantages with a lower resource consumption (e.g., energy) than conventional CPUs. In this paper, we show...
Embedded computing systems are space and cost sensitive; memory is one of the most restricted resources, posing serious constraints on program size. Code compression, which is a s...
