TCP Vegas: New techniques for congestion detection and avoidance

by Lawrence S. Brakmo, Sean W. O’malley, Larry L. Peterson - In SIGCOMM , 1994
"... Vegas is a new implementation of TCP that achieves between 40 and 70 % better throughput, with one-fifth to onehalf the losses, as compared to the implementation of TCP in the Reno distributionof BSD Unix. This paper motivates and describes the three key techniques employed by Vegas, and presents th ..."

A new approach to the maximum flow problem

by Andrew V. Goldberg, Robert E. Tarjan - JOURNAL OF THE ACM , 1988
"... All previously known efficient maximum-flow algorithms work by finding augmenting paths, either one path at a time (as in the original Ford and Fulkerson algorithm) or all shortest-length augmenting paths at once (using the layered network approach of Dinic). An alternative method based on the pre ..."

to be shortest paths. The algorithm and its analysis are simple and intuitive, yet the algorithm runs as fast as any other known method on dense. graphs, achieving an O(n³) time bound on an n-vertex graph. By incorporating the dynamic tree data structure of Sleator and Tarjan, we obtain a version

Focused crawling: a new approach to topic-specific Web resource discovery

by Soumen Chakrabarti, Martin van den Berg, Byron Dom , 1999
"... The rapid growth of the World-Wide Web poses unprecedented scaling challenges for general-purpose crawlers and search engines. In this paper we describe a new hypertext resource discovery system called a Focused Crawler. The goal of a focused crawler is to selectively seek out pages that are relevan ..."

Image retrieval: ideas, influences, and trends of the new age

by Ritendra Datta, Dhiraj Joshi, Jia Li, James Z. Wang - ACM COMPUTING SURVEYS , 2008
"... We have witnessed great interest and a wealth of promise in content-based image retrieval as an emerging technology. While the last decade laid foundation to such promise, it also paved the way for a large number of new techniques and systems, got many new people involved, and triggered stronger ass ..."

A public key cryptosystem and a signature scheme based on discrete logarithms

by Taher Elgamal - ADV. IN CRYPTOLOGY, SPRINGER-VERLAG , 1985
"... A new signature scheme is proposed, together with an implementation of the Diffie-Hellman key distribution scheme that achieves a public key cryptosystem. The security of both systems relies on the difficulty of computing discrete logarithms over finite fields. ..."

Muscle: multiple sequence alignment with high accuracy and high throughput

by Robert C. Edgar - NUCLEIC ACIDS RES , 2004
"... We describe MUSCLE, a new computer program for creating multiple alignments of protein sequences. Elements of the algorithm include fast distance estimation using kmer counting, progressive alignment using a new profile function we call the logexpectation score, and refinement using tree-dependent r ..."

-dependent restricted partitioning. The speed and accuracy of MUSCLE are compared with T-Coffee, MAFFT and CLUSTALW on four test sets of reference alignments: BAliBASE, SABmark, SMART and a new benchmark, PREFAB. MUSCLE achieves the highest, or joint highest, rank in accuracy on each of these sets. Without refinement

Probabilistic Part-of-Speech Tagging Using Decision Trees

by Helmut Schmid , 1994
"... In this paper, a new probabilistic tagging method is presented which avoids problems that Markov Model based taggers face, when they have to estimate transition probabilities from sparse data. In this tagging method, transition probabilities are estimated using a decision tree. Based on this method, ..."

Fast and accurate short read alignment with Burrows-Wheeler transform

by Heng Li, Richard Durbin - BIOINFORMATICS, 2009, ADVANCE ACCESS , 2009
"... Motivation: The enormous amount of short reads generated by the new DNA sequencing technologies call for the development of fast and accurate read alignment programs. A first generation of hashtable based methods has been developed, including MAQ, which is accurate, feature rich and fast enough to a ..."

reads, e.g. from Illumina sequencing machines, and color space reads from AB SOLiD machines. Evaluations on both simulated and real data suggest that BWA is ∼10–20X faster than MAQ while achieving similar accuracy. In addition, BWA outputs alignment in the new standard SAM format. Variant calling

Securing ad hoc networks

by Lidong Zhou, Zygmunt J. Haas
"... Ad hoc networks are a new wireless networking paradigm for mobile hosts. Unlike traditional mobile wireless networks, ad hoc networks do not rely on any fixed infrastructure. Instead, hosts rely on each other to keep the network connected. The military tactical and other security-sensitive operation ..."

network faces and the security goals to be achieved. We identify the new challenges and opportunities posed by this new networking environment and explore new approaches to secure its communication. In particular, we take advantage of the inherent redundancy in ad hoc networks — multiple routes between

User Cooperation Diversity -- Part I: System Description

by Andrew Sendonaris, Elza Erkip, Behnaam Aazhang - IEEE TRANS. COMMUN , 1998
"... Mobile users' data rate and quality of service are limited by the fact that, within the duration of any given call, they experience severe variations in signal attenuation, thereby necessitating the use of some type of diversity. In this two-part paper, we propose a new form of spatial diver ..."
