Routing packet traffic through a chain of hosts is a common technique for hackers to attack a victim machine without exposing themselves. Generally, a long connection chain formed is an indication of the presence of an ...

Lecture videos are an extremely valued learning resource which has been validated by surveys among the students of the University of Houston. The inability to directly access the topics of interest within the video due to ...

The intention to move from single core to multicore architectures has been to increase the performance of a system and hence increase the performance of an application. However, obtaining the optimal application performance ...

We propose two pre-processing steps to classification that apply convex hull-based algorithms to the training set to help improve the performance and speed of classification. The Class Reconstruction algorithm uses a ...

Programming models provide application developers abstraction from the underlying hardware. OpenSHMEM library follows the Partitioned Global Address Space programming model, which is characterized by local and global views ...

Precisely-timed concurrent transmission(CX) is relatively new in wireless sensor network (WSN), and protocols based on CX can implement reliable and conceptually simple flooding mechanism. These protocols work well; however, ...

Vector fields and its analysis play an important role in many scientific and engineering applications, ranging from automobile design, oceanography, climate study, to medicine. Due to the complex nature of flow fields and ...

Genetic variation can occur in the form of single base changes called Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) or large-scale structural alterations called Copy Number Variations (CNVs). Identification and analysis of CNV(s) ...

User studies have been growing larger in terms of size and duration. This is an exciting development because user studies are realistically performed beyond the lab environments. Yet, these studies are challenging because ...
