Practical Skew Handling in Parallel Joins
We present an approach to dealing with skew in parallel joins in database systems. Our approach is easily implementable within current parallel DBMS, and performs well on skewed d...

Deterministic parallel random-number generation for dynamic-multithreading platforms
Existing concurrency platforms for dynamic multithreading do not provide repeatable parallel random-number generators. This paper proposes that a mechanism called pedigrees be bui...

Algorithms and Data Structures for External Memory
Data sets in large applications are often too massive to fit completely inside the computer's internal memory. The resulting input/output communication (or I/O) between fast ...
