Using The UML To Describe The BSP Model Of Parallel Computation
White Papers A Unified Modeling Language (UML) description of the BSP model of parallel computation is presented. This UML description identifies BSP classes and objects and specifies various object and inter-object relationships, dependencies, and behaviors.

Notes On Path Computation In Constraint-Based Routing
White Papers If the path computation and set up can be done dynamically (by a router), there are further advantages. Traffic Engineering is of increasing interest in today's networks. One of the objectives of Traffic Engineering is to obtain more control over...

On The Computation Of Multidimensional Aggregates
White Papers We focus on a special case of the aggregation problem - computation of the CUBE operator. At the heart of all OLAP or multidimensional data analysis is the ability to simultaneously aggregate across many sets of dimensions.

Rank Computation Methods For Web
White Papers We analyze the existing rank computation methods for the Web using a notion of rank flows and focusing on the methods for authority rank computation. The proposed model has a number of advantages over the surfing model used in the Google search...

A Framework For Comparing Models Of Computation
White Papers We give a denotational framework (a "meta model") within which certain properties of models of computation can be compared. It describes concurrent processes in general terms as sets of possible behaviors.

Effective Computation Of Biased Quantiles Over Data Streams
White Papers First, can a person compute quantiles with finer error guarantees for the higher ranks of the data distribution effectively, using less space and computation time than computing all quantiles uniformly at the finest error?

Fairplay - A Secure Two-Party Computation System
White Papers Advances in modern cryptography coupled with rapid growth in processing and communication speeds make secure two-party computation a realistic paradigm. Yet, thus far, interest in this paradigm has remained mostly theoretical.

Algebra And Algorithms For QoS Path Computation And Hop-by-Hop Routing In The Internet
White Papers Prompted by the advent of QoS routing in the Internet, we investigate the properties that path weight functions must have so that hop-by-hop routing is possible and optimal paths can be computed with a generalized Dijsktra’s algorithm.
