This paper presents the design and implementation of the Intentional Naming System (INS), a resource discovery and service location system for dynamic and mobile networks of devices and computers. Such environments require a naming system that is (i) expressive, to describe and make requests based o ..."

A distributed, developmental model of word recognition and naming

by Mark S. Seidenberg, James L. McClelland - PSYCHOLOGICAL REVIEW , 1989
"... A parallel distributed processing model of visual word recognition and pronunciation is described. The model consists of sets of orthographic and phonological units and an interlevel of hidden units. Weights on connections between units were modified during a training phase using the back-propagatio ..."

, and (e) differences in performance on lexieal decision and naming tasks. The model's behavior early in the learning phase corresponds to that of children acquiring word recognition skills. Training with a smaller number of hidden units produces output characteristic of many dys-lexic readers. Naming

An Analytical Taxonomy of Naming Systems

by Bryan Bayerdorffer - Univ. of Texas Dept. of CS , 1992
"... A naming system consists of the mechanisms that govern the definition, binding, and access to the names upon which communication among active objects in a parallel or distributed system depends. A concurrent algorithm may require certain patterns of communication among objects. Naming systems differ ..."

A Fast File System for UNIX

by Marshall Kirk Mckusick, William N. Joy, Samuel J. Leffler, Robert S. Fabry - ACM Transactions on Computer Systems , 1984
"... A reimplementation of the UNIX file system is described. The reimplementation provides substantially higher throughput rates by using more flexible allocation policies that allow better locality of reference and can be adapted to a wide range of peripheral and processor characteristics. The new file ..."

A Measurement Study of Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Systems

by Stefan Saroiu , P. Krishna Gummadi, Steven D. Gribble , 2002
"... The popularity of peer-to-peer multimedia file sharing applications such as Gnutella and Napster has created a flurry of recent research activity into peer-to-peer architectures. We believe that the proper evaluation of a peer-to-peer system must take into account the characteristics of the peers th ..."

In this paper, we remedy this situation by performing a detailed measurement study of the two popular peer-to-peer file sharing systems, namely

A Bayesian computer vision system for modeling human interactions

by Nuria M. Oliver, Barbara Rosario, Alex P. Pentland - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... We describe a real-time computer vision and machine learning system for modeling and recognizing human behaviors in a visual surveillance task [1]. The system is particularly concerned with detecting when interactions between people occur and classifying the type of interaction. Examples of interes ..."

Finally, to deal with the problem of limited training data, a synthetic ªAlife-styleº training system is used to develop
