Distinct, local structures are frequently correlated with functional RNA elements involved in posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression. Discovery of microRNAs (miRNAs) su...
In this paper we investigate protocols for scheduling applications that consist of large numbers of identical, independent tasks on large-scale computing platforms. By imposing a ...

We study the design of truthful mechanisms that do not use payments for the generalized assignment problem (GAP) and its variants. An instance of the GAP consists of a bipartite g...
One method of viral marketing involves seeding certain consumers within a population to encourage faster adoption of the product throughout the entire population. However, determi...
A significant challenge in genetic programming is premature convergence to local optima, which often prevents evolution from solving problems. This paper introduces to genetic pro...
