Notions of Computation and Monads
, 1991
"... The i.-calculus is considered a useful mathematical tool in the study of programming languages, since programs can be identified with I-terms. However, if one goes further and uses bn-conversion to prove equivalence of programs, then a gross simplification is introduced (programs are identified with ..."

Active Messages: a Mechanism for Integrated Communication and Computation
, 1992
"... The design challenge for large-scale multiprocessors is (1) to minimize communication overhead, (2) allow communication to overlap computation, and (3) coordinate the two without sacrificing processor cost/performance. We show that existing message passing multiprocessors have unnecessarily high com ..."

The SPLASH-2 programs: Characterization and methodological considerations
- 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 ..."

Static Scheduling of Synchronous Data Flow Programs for Digital Signal Processing
- IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON COMPUTERS
, 1987
"... Large grain data flow (LGDF) programming is natural and convenient for describing digital signal processing (DSP) systems, but its runtime overhead is costly in real time or cost-sensitive applications. In some situations, designers are not willing to squander computing resources for the sake of pro ..."

Hidden Markov models in computational biology: applications to protein modeling
- JOURNAL OF MOLECULAR BIOLOGY
, 1994
"... Hidden.Markov Models (HMMs) are applied t.0 the problems of statistical modeling, database searching and multiple sequence alignment of protein families and protein domains. These methods are demonstrated the on globin family, the protein kinase catalytic domain, and the EF-hand calcium binding moti ..."

The Hi " produces multiple alignments of good quality that agree closely with the alignments produced by programs that incorporate three-dimensional structural information. When employed in discrimination tests (by examining how closely the sequences in a
A Faster Algorithm for Betweenness Centrality
- Journal of Mathematical Sociology
, 2001
"... The betweenness centrality index is essential in the analysis of social networks, but costly to compute. Currently, the fastest known algorithms require #(n ) time and #(n ) space, where n is the number of actors in the network. ..."

Local grayvalue invariants for image retrieval
- IEEE Transactions on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence
, 1997
"... Abstract—This paper addresses the problem of retrieving images from large image databases. The method is based on local grayvalue invariants which are computed at automatically detected interest points. A voting algorithm and semilocal constraints make retrieval possible. Indexing allows for efficie ..."

Why a diagram is (sometimes) worth ten thousand words
- Cognitive Science

We distinguish diagrammatic from sentential paper-and-pencil representationsof information by developing alternative models of information-processing systems that are informationally equivalent and that can be characterized as sentential or diagrammatic. Sentential representations are sequential, li ..."

Dio-grommatic representations also typically display information that is only implicit in sententiol representations and that therefore has to be computed, sometimes at great cost, to make it explicit
