Virtual machine power measuring technique with bounded error in cloud environments Abstract? Virtual machine power measuring technique with bounded error in cloud environments. Several fields of science have traditionally demanded large-scale workflow support, which requires thousands of CPU cores or more. In this paper, we investigate ways to support these scientific workflows in a…
Virtual Servers Co-Migration for Mobile Accesses: Online vs. Off-line Abstract?Virtual Servers Co-Migration for Mobile Accesses Online vs. Off-line .Firstly we study the problem of co-migrating a set of service replicas residing on one or more redundant virtual servers in clouds in order to satisfy a sequence of mobile batch-request emands in a cost effective way….
Visual Object Tracking Based on Local Steering Kernels and Color Histograms Abstract? we propose a visual object tracking framework, which employs an appearance-based representation of the target object, based on local steering kernel descriptors and color histogram information. This framework takes as input the region of the target object in the previous video frame and…
Visual voice activity detection as a help for speech source separation from convolutive mixtures Abstract?Visual voice activity detection as a help for speech source separation from convolutive mixtures. Audio-visual speech source separation consists in mixing visual speech processing techniques (e.g. lip parameters tracking) with source separation methods to improve and/or simplify the extraction of a…
