An affine invariant interest point detector
- In Proceedings of the 7th European Conference on Computer Vision
, 2002
"... Abstract. This paper presents a novel approach for detecting affine invariant interest points. Our method can deal with significant affine transformations including large scale changes. Such transformations introduce significant changes in the point location as well as in the scale and the shape of ..."

of the neighbourhood of an interest point. Our approach allows to solve for these problems simultaneously. It is based on three key ideas: 1) The second moment matrix computed in a point can be used to normalize a region in an affine invariant way (skew and stretch). 2) The scale of the local structure is indicated
Scale and performance in a distributed file system
- ACM Transactions on Computer Systems
, 1988
"... The Andrew File System is a location-transparent distributed tile system that will eventually span more than 5000 workstations at Carnegie Mellon University. Large scale affects performance and complicates system operation. In this paper we present observations of a prototype implementation, motivat ..."

Distortion invariant object recognition in the dynamic link architecture
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTERS
, 1993
"... We present an object recognition system based on the Dynamic Link Architecture, which is an extension to classical Artificial Neural Networks. The Dynamic Link Architecture ex-ploits correlations in the fine-scale temporal structure of cellular signals in order to group neurons dynamically into hig ..."

Multiresolution grayscale and rotation invariant texture classification with local binary patterns
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE
, 2002
"... This paper presents a theoretically very simple, yet efficient, multiresolution approach to gray-scale and rotation invariant texture classification based on local binary patterns and nonparametric discrimination of sample and prototype distributions. The method is based on recognizing that certain ..."

Bigtable: A distributed storage system for structured data
- IN PROCEEDINGS OF THE 7TH CONFERENCE ON USENIX SYMPOSIUM ON OPERATING SYSTEMS DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION - VOLUME 7
, 2006
"... Bigtable is a distributed storage system for managing structured data that is designed to scale to a very large size: petabytes of data across thousands of commodity servers. Many projects at Google store data in Bigtable, including web indexing, Google Earth, and Google Finance. These applications ..."

Distributed Computing in Practice: The Condor Experience
, 2005
"... Since 1984, the Condor project has enabled ordinary users to do extraordinary computing. Today, the project continues to explore the social and technical problems of cooperative computing on scales ranging from the desktop to the world-wide computational Grid. In this paper, we provide the history a ..."

We outline the core components of the Condor system and describe how the technology of computing must correspond to social structures. Throughout, we reflect
Grid Information Services for Distributed Resource Sharing
, 2001
"... Grid technologies enable large-scale sharing of resources within formal or informal consortia of individuals and/or institutions: what are sometimes called virtual organizations. In these settings, the discovery, characterization, and monitoring of resources, services, and computations are challengi ..."

Randomized Gossip Algorithms
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON INFORMATION THEORY
, 2006
"... Motivated by applications to sensor, peer-to-peer, and ad hoc networks, we study distributed algorithms, also known as gossip algorithms, for exchanging information and for computing in an arbitrarily connected network of nodes. The topology of such networks changes continuously as new nodes join a ..."

In general, SDPs cannot be solved in a distributed fashion; however, exploiting problem structure, we propose a distributed subgradient
Monopolistic competition and optimum product diversity. The American Economic Review,

It is well known that problems can arise for three broad reasons: distributive justice; external effects; and scale economies. This paper is c ..."
