We consider query optimization techniques for data intensive P2P applications. We show how to adapt an old technique from deductive databases, namely Query-Sub-Query (QSQ), to a s...
Distributed applications tend to have a complex design due to issues such as concurrency, synchronization and communication. Researchers in the past have proposed abstractions to ...
