When integrating geo-spatial datasets, a join algorithm is used for finding sets of corresponding objects (i.e., objects that represent the same real-world entity). Algorithms for...
The R*-tree, as a state-of-the-art spatial index, has already found its way into commercial systems like Oracle. In this paper, we aim at improving query performance of the R*tree...
Energy consumption is of significant concern in battery operated embedded systems. In the processors of such systems, the instruction cache consumes a significant fraction of the ...
The many levels of metal used in aggressive deep submicron process technologies has made fast and accurate capacitance extraction of complicated 3-D geometries of conductors essen...
Memory delays represent a major bottleneck in embedded systems performance. Newer memory modules exhibiting efficient access modes (e.g., page-, burst-mode) partly alleviate this ...
