User modeling for information retrieval has mostly been studied to improve the effectiveness of information access in centralized repositories. In this paper we explore user model...
We present a distributed index data structure and algorithms devised to support parallel query processing of multimedia content in search engines. We present a comparative study wi...
Even though high-level hardware synthesis from dataflow graphs becomes popular in designing DSP systems, currently used dataflow models are inefficient to deal with emerging multi...
This paper presents an efficient parallel information retrieval (IR) system which provides fast information service for the Internet users on lowcost high-performance PC-NOW enviro...
Automatic shape acquisition technologies evolved rapidly in recent years, and huge mass of 3D data can be easily produced. The high accuracy of range scanning technology makes the...
