Vertical partition is an important technique in database design used to enhance performance in database systems. Vertical fragmentation is a combinatorial optimization problem that...
We introduce a hierarchical partitioning scheme of the Euclidean plane, called circular partitions. Such a partition consists of a hierarchy of convex polygons, each having small ...
This paper explores runtime reconfiguration of custom instructions in the context of multi-tasking real-time embedded systems. We propose a pseudo-polynomial time algorithm that mi...
Differential evolution (DE) is a powerful yet simple evolutionary algorithm for optimizing real valued optimization problems. Traditional investigations with differential evolution...
Scheduling of sporadic task systems on multiprocessor platforms is an area which has received much attention in the recent past. It is widely believed that finding an optimal sch...
