Un pôle scientifique à Urbino. Les facultés scientifiques de l'université (I)

« Sur les pentes de l'Appenin, presque au milieu de l'Italie, vers la mer Adriatique, est située, comme chacun le sait, la petite cité d'Urbino. Bien qu'elle soit entre des montagnes qui ne sont peut-être pas aussi plaisantes que certaines autres que nous ...

Tracing attacks and restoring integrity with LASCAR

Philippe Oechslin, Alexandre Aellig

We present a novel method to trace the propagation of intrusions or malicious code in networked systems. Our solution is aimed at large numbers of loosely managed workstations typical of a research environment as found in CERN. The system tags events which ...

Probabilistic Atomic Broadcast

Fernando Pedone, Pascal Felber

Reliable distributed protocols, such as consensus and atomic broadcast, are known to scale poorly with large number of processes. Recent research has shown that algorithms providing probabilistic guarantees are a promising alternative for such environments ...

Improved Unknown-Multiple Speaker clustering using HMM

Hervé Bourlard, Jitendra Ajmera

In this report, we build up on our previous work on speaker clustering, where the number of speakers and segmentation boundaries are unknown a priori. We employ an ergodic HMM with minimum duration topology for this purpose. Starting from a large number of ...

A Framework for Semantic Gossiping

Karl Aberer, Manfred Hauswirth, Philippe Cudré-Mauroux

Today the problem of semantic interoperability in information search on the Internet is solved mostly by means of centralization, both at a sys-tem and at a logical level. This approach has been successful to a certain extent. Peer-to-peer systems as a new ...

Total asymmetric synthesis of a new 9,12-anhydroerythronolide aglycone

Pierre Vogel, Sandrine Gerber

Two novel, potentially antimicrobial erythronolide aglycon analogs ((-)-9 and (-)-30, respectively), which incorporate a large number of contiguous stereogenic centers, have been prepared by multistep synthesis from simple chirons. The chemistry presented ...

Challenges in Large-Scale Open Agent Mediated Economies

Steven Nicolas Willmott

Technology developments such as Web Services, GRID Computing and peer-to-peer toolkits are rapidly changing the way systems deployed in public networks interact. Large-scale usage of these technologies would very likely lead to environments which have many ...

On the learning mechanism of adaptive filters

Ali H. Sayed

This paper highlights, both analytically and by simulations, some interesting phenomena regarding the behavior of ensemble-average learning curves of adaptive filters that may have gone unnoticed. Among other results, the paper shows that even ensemble-ave ...

Power-law behavior of beat-rate variability in monolayer cultures of neonatal rat ventricular myocytes

Philippe Renaud, Marc Olivier Heuschkel

It is known that extracardiac factors (nervous, humoral, and hemodynamic) participate in the power-law behavior of heart-rate variability. To assess whether intrinsic properties of cardiac tissue might also be involved, beat- rate variability was studied i ...

SRP: a scalable resource reservation protocol for the internet

Jean-Yves Le Boudec

The Scalable Reservation Protocol (SRP) provides a light-weight reservation mechanism for adaptive multimedia applications. Our main focus is on good scalability to very large numbers of individual flows. End systems (i.e. senders and destinations) activel ...
