In this work we compare two different options to perform on-line subjective quality assessment experiments in the context of the Call for Evidence on JPEG Pleno Point Cloud Coding. A deep-learning based point cloud codec submitted to the Call was tested ag ...
The unique combination of structural, optical, and electronic properties of nanocarbons (NCs) has made these materials particularly attractive for various applications in biotechnology and biomedicine, ranging from sensing, gene-delivery, bioimaging and th ...
For years, immersive interfaces using virtual and augmented reality (AR) for molecular visualization and modeling have promised a revolution in the way how we teach, learn, communicate and work in chemistry, structural biology and related areas. However, m ...
The majority of currently available webpages are dynamic in nature and are changing frequently. New content gets added to webpages, and existing content gets updated or deleted. Hence, people find it useful to be alert for changes in webpages that contain ...
Virtually every connection to an Internet service is preceded by a DNS lookup. Lookups are performed without any traffic-level protection, thus enabling manipulation, redirection, surveillance, and censorship. To address these issues, large organizations s ...
Modern large-scale data platforms manage colossal amount of data, generated by the ever-increasing number of concurrent users. Geo-replicated and sharded key-value data stores play a central role when building such platforms. As the strongest consistency m ...
A major theme of IT in the past decade has been the shift from on-premise hardware to cloud computing. Running a service in the public cloud is practical, because a large number of resources can be bought on-demand, but this shift comes with its own set of ...
The wide application of Internet of Things (IoT) has fostered the development of Industry 4.0. In manufacturing domain, Industrial IoT (IIoT) are key components of the Factories of the Future (FoF). The big IIoT data are the foundation of implementing data ...
In the celebrated coded caching problem studied by Maddah-Ali and Niesen, the peak-traffic network load is to be reduced by first caching some information about contents into individual memories of end users during the off-peak hours and then upon user req ...
