A very challenging issue for optimizing compilers is the phase ordering problem: In what order should a collection of compiler optimizations be performed? We address this problem ...
With the advances in rendering hardware, it is possible to render very complex scenes in real-time. In general, computers do not have enough memory to store all the necessary infor...
Content Distribution Networks (CDNs) are increasingly being used to disseminate data in today's Internet aiming at reducing the load on the origin server and the traffic on t...

When monitoring spatial phenomena, which are often modeled as Gaussian Processes (GPs), choosing sensor locations is a fundamental task. A common strategy is to place sensors at t...
In the near future, commodity hardware is expected to incorporate both flash and magnetic disks. In this paper we study how the storage layer of a database system can benefit from...
