MATLAB*G: A Grid-Based Parallel MATLAB
(2004-01)This paper describes the design and implementation of MATLAB*G, a parallel MATLAB on the ALiCE Grid. ALiCE (Adaptive and scaLable internet-based Computing Engine), developed at NUS, is a lightweight grid-computing middleware. ... -
MATLAB*P 2.0: A unified parallel MATLAB
(2003-01)MATLAB is one of the most widely used mathematical computing environments in technical computing. It is an interactive environment that provides high performance computational routines and an easy-to-use, C-like scripting ... -
A Media Player for Use in Distance Education
(2004-01)We have developed a media player for use in distance education. The player can incorporate several time-indexed sources, including video, audio, PowerPoint, and text index. We have converted all the SMA 5503 Introduction ... -
Memory Hierarchy Hardware-Software Co-design in Embedded Systems
(2005-01)The memory hierarchy is the main bottleneck in modern computer systems as the gap between the speed of the processor and the memory continues to grow larger. The situation in embedded systems is even worse. The memory ... -
Memory Usage Inference for Object-Oriented Programs
(2005-01)We present a type-based approach to statically derive symbolic closed-form formulae that characterize the bounds of heap memory usages of programs written in object-oriented languages. Given a program with size and alias ... -
Mobile P2Ping: A Super-Peer based Structured P2P System Using a Fleet of City Buses
(2005-01)Recently, researchers have introduced the notion of super-peers to improve signaling efficiency as well as lookup performance of peer-to-peer (P2P) systems. In a separate development, recent works on applications of mobile ... -
Modeling Information Flow in Face-to-Face Meetings while Protecting Privacy
(2006-01)Social networks have been used to understand how information flows through an organization as well as identifying individuals that appear to have control over this information flow. Such individuals are identified as being ... -
MPEG-2 in a Stream Programming Language
(2006-01)Image and video codecs are prevalent in multimedia applications, ranging from embedded systems, to desktop computers, to high-end servers such as HDTV editing consoles. It is not uncommon however for developers create (from ... -
A New Constructive Method for the One-Letter Context-Free Grammars
(2004-01)Constructive methods for obtaining the regular grammar counterparts for some sub-classes of the context free grammars (cfg) have been investigated by many researchers. An important class of grammars for which this is always ... -
Non-Iterative, Feature-Preserving Mesh Smoothing
(2004-01)With the increasing use of geometry scanners to create 3D models, there is a rising need for fast and robust mesh smoothing to remove inevitable noise in the measurements. While most previous work has favored diffusion-based ... -
OmniMerge: A Systematic Approach to Constrained Conformational Search
(2003-01)OmniMerge performs a systematic search to enumerate all conformations of a molecule (at a given level of torsion-angle resolution) that satisfy a set of local geometric constraints. Constraints would typically come from ... -
On the Detection of Retinal Vessels in Fundus Images
(2003-01)Ocular fundus image can provide information on pathological changes caused by local ocular diseases and early signs of certain systemic diseases. Automated analysis and interpretation of fundus images has become a necessary ... -
On Web Taxonomy Integration
(2004-01)We address the problem of integrating objects from a source taxonomy into a master taxonomy. This problem is not only pervasive on the nowadays web, but also important to the emerging semantic web. A straightforward approach ... -
On-the-Fly Maintenance of Series-Parallel Relationships in Fork-Join Multithreaded Programs
(2005-01)A key capability of data-race detectors is to determine whether one thread executes logically in parallel with another or whether the threads must operate in series. This paper provides two algorithms, one serial and one ... -
On-the-fly Race Detection for Programs with Recursive Spawn-Sync Parallelism
(2004-01)Detecting data race is very important for debugging shared-memory parallel programs, because data races result in unintended nondeterministic execution of the program. We propose a dynamic on-the-fly race detection mechanism ... -
PeerDB-Peering into Personal Databases
(2003-01)In this talk, we will present the design and evaluation of PeerDB, a peer-to-peer (P2P) distributed data sharing system. PeerDB distinguishes itself from existing P2P systems in several ways. First, it is a full-fledge ... -
Playing is believing: the role of beliefs in multi-agent learning
(2003-01)We propose a new classification for multi-agent learning algorithms, with each league of players characterized by both their possible strategies and possible beliefs. Using this classification, we review the optimality of ... -
A Privacy Conscious Bluetooth Infrastructure for Location Aware Computing
(2005-01)We present a low cost and easily deployed infrastructure for location aware computing that is built using standard Bluetooth® technologies and personal computers. Mobile devices are able to determine their location to ... -
Proactive Detection and Recovery of Lost Mobile Phones
(2005-01)This paper describes the successful implementation of a prototype software application that independently and proactively detects whether a mobile phone is lost or misused. When the mobile phone is detected as being lost ... -
Programming with Exceptions in JCilk
(2006-01)JCilk extends the Java language to provide call-return semantics for multithreading, much as Cilk does for C. Java's built-in thread model does not support the passing of exceptions or return values from one thread back ...
