Suspension-based tabling systems have to save and restore computation states belonging to OR branches. Stack freezing combined with (forward) trailing is among the better-known imp...
In this work, we research the suitability of the Cell Broadband Engine for database processing. We start by outlining the main architectural features of Cell and use microbenchmar...
Bounded treewidth and Monadic Second Order (MSO) logic have proved to be key concepts in establishing fixed-parameter tractability results. Indeed, by Courcelle's Theorem we ...
