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 ..."

The SPLASH-2 programs: Characterization and methodological considerations

by Steven Cameron Woo, Moriyoshi Ohara, Evan Torrie, Jaswinder Pal Singh, Anoop Gupta - INTERNATIONAL SYMPOSIUM ON COMPUTER ARCHITECTURE , 1995
"... The SPLASH-2 suite of parallel applications has recently been released to facilitate the study of centralized and distributed shared-address-space multiprocessors. In this context, this paper has two goals. One is to quantitatively characterize the SPLASH-2 programs in terms of fundamental propertie ..."

sets of the applications, we describe which operating points in terms of cache size and problem size are representative of realistic situations, which are not, and which re redundant. Using SPLASH-2 as an example, we hope to convey the importance of understanding the interplay of problem size, number

Dynamo: A Transparent Dynamic Optimization System

by Vasanth Bala, Evelyn Duesterwald , Sanjeev Banerjia - ACM SIGPLAN NOTICES , 2000
"... We describe the design and implementation of Dynamo, a software dynamic optimization system that is capable of transparently improving the performance of a native instruction stream as it executes on the processor. The input native instruction stream to Dynamo can be dynamically generated (by a JIT ..."

not require multiple runs, or any special compiler, operating system or hardware support. The Dynamo prototype presented here is a realistic implementation running on an HP PA-8000 workstation under the HPUX 10.20 operating system.

Hierarchical Modelling and Analysis for Spatial Data. Chapman and Hall/CRC,

by S Banerjee , B P Carlin , A E Gelfand , Chapman , / Hall , New Crc , N York; Cressie , P J Diggle , P J Ribeiro Jr , B D Ripley , 2004
"... Abstract Often, there are two streams in statistical research -one developed by practitioners and other by main stream statisticians. Development of geostatistics is a very good example where pioneering work under realistic assumptions came from mining engineers whereas it is only now that statisti ..."

Sampling—50 years after Shannon

by Michael Unser - Proceedings of the IEEE , 2000
"... This paper presents an account of the current state of sampling, 50 years after Shannon’s formulation of the sampling theorem. The emphasis is on regular sampling, where the grid is uniform. This topic has benefited from a strong research revival during the past few years, thanks in part to the math ..."

of functions in the more general class of “shift-invariant” functions spaces, including splines and wavelets. Practically, this allows for simpler—and possibly more realistic—interpolation models, which can be used in conjunction with a much wider class of (anti-aliasing) prefilters that are not necessarily

The New Routing Algorithm for the ARPANET

by John M. McQuillan, Ira Richer, Eric C. Rosen - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMMUNICATIONS , 1980
"... The new ARPANET routing algorithm is an improvement test results. This paper is a summary of our conclusions only; over the old procedure in that it uses fewer network resources, operates on for more complete descriptions of our research findings, see more realistic estimates of network conditions, ..."

Multiagent systems

by Katia P. Sycara - AI Magazine , 1998
"... ■ Agent-based systems technology has generated lots of excitement in recent years because of its promise as a new paradigm for conceptualizing, designing, and implementing software systems. This promise is particularly attractive for creating software that operates in environments that are distribu ..."

Synthesizing physically realistic human motion in low-dimensional, behaviorspecific spaces

by Alla Safonova, Jessica K. Hodgins, Nancy S. Pollard - ACM Transactions on Graphics , 2004
"... Optimization is an appealing way to compute the motion of an animated character because it allows the user to specify the desired motion in a sparse, intuitive way. The difficulty of solving this problem for complex characters such as humans is due in part to the high dimensionality of the search sp ..."

space. The dimensionality is an artifact of the problem representation because most dynamic human behaviors are intrinsically low dimensional with, for example, legs and arms operating in a coordinated way. We describe a method that exploits this observation to create an optimization problem

The Design, Implementation and Evaluation of SMART: A Scheduler for Multimedia Applications

by Jason Nieh, Monica S. Lam , 1997
"... This paper argues for the need to design a new processor scheduling algorithm that can handle the mix of applications we see today. We present a scheduling algorithm which we have implemented in the Solaris UNIX operating system [Eykholt et al. 1992], and demonstrate its improved performance over ex ..."

Beam tracing polygonal objects

by Paul S Heckbert , Pat Hanrahan - In Computer Graphics (Proceedings of ACM SIGGRAPH , 1984
"... Abstract Ray tracing has produced some of the most realistic computer generated pictures to date. They contain surface texturing, local shading, shadows, reflections and refractions. The major disadvantage of ray tracing results from its point-sampling approach. Because calculation proceeds ab init ..."
