We argue that efficient support for schema validation and type annotation in XQuery processors deserves as much attention as efficient evaluation techniques for XPath queries have...
We show how the full XPath language can be compiled into a minimal subset suited for stream-based evaluation. Specifically, we show how XPath normalization into a core language a...
Simulation has been the de facto standard method for performance evaluation of newly proposed ideas in computer architecture for many years. While simulation allows for theoretica...

In this paper, we evaluated various distributed mutual exclusion algorithms on the IBM SP2 machine and the Intel iPSC/860 system. The empirical results are compared in terms of su...
Distributed mobile applications operate on devices with diverse capabilities, in heterogeneous environments, where parameters such as processor, memory and network utilisation, are...
