Monte Carlo methods and their subsequent simulated annealing are able to minimize general energy functions. However, the slow convergence of simulated annealing compared with more ...
views abstract groups of tasks in a workflow into high level composite tasks, in order to reuse sub-workflows and facilitate provenance analysis. However, unless a view is careful...
Query optimization is an integral part of relational database management systems. One important task in query optimization is selectivity estimation, that is, given a query P, we ...
