— This work aims at minimize the cost of answering snapshot multi-predicate queries in high-communication-cost networks. High-communication-cost (HCC) networks is a family of net...
Abstract. The theory of bulk-synchronous parallel computing has produced a large number of attractive algorithms, which are provably optimal in some sense, but typically require th...
