In the realization of agent-based applications the developer generally needs to use heterogeneous agent architectures, so that each application component can optimally perform its...
In this paper, we present a fast watershed algorithm based on the rainfalling simulation. We present the various techniques and data structures utilized in our approach. Throughou...
Message ordering is a fundamental abstraction in distributed systems. However, ordering guarantees are usually purely "syntactic," that is, message "semantics" ...
We describe a digital circuit synthesis algorithm specialized for the domain of pattern matching circuits implemented in reconfigurable logic. We propose to use this algorithm as ...
We consider handheld computing devices which are connected to a server (or a powerful desktop machine) via a wireless LAN. On such devices, it is often possible to save the energy...
