Algorithms that exploit sort orders are widely used to implement joins, grouping, duplicate elimination and other set operations. Query optimizers traditionally deal with sort ord...
Engineers use software tools to analyze designs for critical systems. Because important decisions are based on tool results, tools must provide valid modeling constructs; engineer...
— We have developed an analysis-based design tool, ANDES, for modeling a wireless sensor network system and analyzing its performance before deployment. ANDES enables designers t...
This paper considers the complexity of measuring the return on investment for technology adoption. A brief case study of technology adoption in a large design and construction fir...
Abstract. Multidimensional databases are large collections of data, often historical, used for sophisticated analysis oriented to decision making. This activity is supported by an ...
