We describe a Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC)-based algorithm for sampling solutions to mixed Boolean/integer constraint problems. The focus of this work differs in two points from...
Scalable storage architectures allow for the addition or removal of storage devices to increase storage capacity and bandwidth or retire older devices. Assuming random placement of...
XPORT is a profile-driven distributed data dissemination system that supports an extensible set of data types, profiles types, and optimization metrics. XPORT efficiently implemen...
This paper studies quantization error in the context of Matching Pursuit coded streams and proposes a new coefficient quantization scheme taking benefit of the Matching Pursuit pr...
—When manufacturing nano-devices, defects are a certainty and reliability becomes a critical issue. Until now, the most pervasive methods used to address reliability, involve inj...
