Dynamo: amazon’s highly available key-value store
- IN PROC. SOSP
, 2007
"... Reliability at massive scale is one of the biggest challenges we face at Amazon.com, one of the largest e-commerce operations in the world; even the slightest outage has significant financial consequences and impacts customer trust. The Amazon.com platform, which provides services for many web sites ..."

Graph embedding and extension: A general framework for dimensionality reduction
- IEEE TRANS. PATTERN ANAL. MACH. INTELL
, 2007
"... Over the past few decades, a large family of algorithms—supervised or unsupervised; stemming from statistics or geometry theory—has been designed to provide different solutions to the problem of dimensionality reduction. Despite the different motivations of these algorithms, we present in this paper ..."

in this paper a general formulation known as graph embedding to unify them within a common framework. In graph embedding, each algorithm can be considered as the direct graph embedding or its linear/kernel/tensor extension of a specific intrinsic graph that describes certain desired statistical or geometric
A Probabilistic Approach to Collaborative Multi-Robot Localization
, 2000
"... This paper presents a statistical algorithm for collaborative mobile robot localization. Our approach uses a sample-based version of Markov localization, capable of localizing mobile robots in an any-time fashion. When teams of robots localize themselves in the same environment, probabilistic method ..."

methods are employed to synchronize each robot's belief whenever one robot detects another. As a result, the robots localize themselves faster, maintain higher accuracy, and high-cost sensors are amortized across multiple robot platforms. The technique has been implemented and tested using two mobile
Property-based attestation for computing platforms: caring about properties, not mechanisms

, 2004
"... Over the past years, the computing industry has started various initiatives announced to increase computer security by means of new hardware architectures. The most notable effort is the Trusted Computing Group (TCG) and the Next-Generation Secure Computing Base (NGSCB). This technology offers usefu ..."

that these mechanisms can be misused to discriminate certain platforms, i.e., their operating systems and consequently the corresponding vendors. A particular problem in this context is that of managing the multitude of possible configurations. Moreover, we highlight other shortcomings related to the attestation
PLATFORM AND IMADR
"... 2 The aim of this paper is to examine the type of relations existing between the state and civil society in Japan. The main concern of the researcher was to discover particular cases where NGOs have been successful in influencing governmental policies. The paper presents a case study of two contempo ..."

The data has been collected through interviews with NGO representatives and government officials, as well as literature reviews
READERS ’ PLATFORM

"... Hydraulic elevators dominated the elevator market for 50 years – until the beginning of the 21st century. With the emergence of machine-room-less (MRL) traction elevators in 1995, hydraulic elevators began dealing with increased competition. Nevertheless, fluid-driven systems have their distinct adv ..."

Platform-independent modelling in MDA: supporting abstract platforms
- in Proceedings Model-Driven Architecture: Foundations and Applications 2004 (MDAFA 2004
, 2005
"... An MDA-based design approach should be able to accommodate designs at different levels of platform-independence. We have previously proposed a design approach [2], which allows these levels to be identified. An important feature of this approach is the notion of abstract platform. An abstract pl ..."

platform is determined by considering the platform characteristics that are relevant for applications at a certain level of platform-independence as well as the various design goals. In this paper, we discuss how our design approach can be supported using the MDA standards UML 2.0 and MOF 2.0. Since our
The Architecture of Platforms: A Unified View
"... The central role of “platform ” products and services in mediating the activities of disaggregated “clusters ” or “ecosystems ” of firms has been widely recognized. But platforms and the systems in which they are embedded are very diverse. In particular, platforms may exist within firms as product l ..."

Platform architectures are modularizations of complex systems in which certain components (the platform itself) remain stable
Location Privacy in the Alipes platform

In this paper, we introduce the generalized Stewart platform consisting of two rigid bodies connected with six distance and/or angular constraints between six pairs of points, lines and/or planes in the base and moving platform respectively, which could be considered as the most general fo ..."
