We report on the design, implementation, and evaluation of a system called Cedar that enables mobile database access with good performance over low-bandwidth networks. This is acc...
A cross-layered slotted ALOHA protocol is proposed and analyzed for distributed estimation in sensor networks. Suppose that the sensors in the network record local measurements of ...
Declustering and replication are well known techniques used to improve response time of queries in parallel disk environments. As data replication incurs a penalty for updates, da...
Data caches are essential in modern processors, bridging the widening gap between main memory and processor speeds. However, they yield very complex performance models, which make...
Modern servers access large volumes of data while running commercial workloads. The data is typically spread among several storage devices (e.g. disks). Carefully placing the data...
