Given the sequential implementation of any data structure, we show how to obtain an efficient, wait-free implementation of that data structure shared by any fixed number of proces...
While traditional approaches to code profiling help locate performance bottlenecks, they offer only limited support for removing these bottlenecks. The main reason is the lack of v...
Query folding refers to the activity of determining if and how a query can be answered using a given set of resources, which might be materialized views, cached results of previou...
Iterated Runge-Kutta (IRK) methods are a class of explicit solution methods for initial value problems of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) which possess a considerable poten...
In ACM Multimedia’2002, a video proxy scheme was proposed for secure video delivery. In the scheme, a video is cached in proxies in encrypted form so that it remains nondisclose...
