Rewriting queries using views is a powerful technique that has applications in data integration, data warehousing and query optimization. Query rewriting in relational databases i...
This paper presents a novel strategy improvement algorithm for parity and payoff games, which is guaranteed to select, in each improvement step, an optimal combination of local str...
The shape of a NURBS curve or patch is defined by the location of its control points, the weights associated with these points, and the parameter intervals, also called the knot v...
This paper presents a novel repeater insertion algorithm for the power minimization of realistic interconnect trees under given timing budgets. Our algorithm judiciously combines ...
In this paper, we present a Dynamic Load Balancing (DLB) policy for problems characterized by a highly irregular search tree, whereby no reliable workload prediction is available....
