Abstract. In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorit...
This paper describes a Parallel Space Decomposition (PSD) technique for the Mesh Adaptive Direct Search (MADS) algorithm. MADS extends Generalized Pattern Search for constrained n...
As high-speed networks make it easier to use distributed resources, it becomes increasingly common that applications and their data are not colocated. Users have traditionally add...

We present a new approach that enables compiler optimization of procedure calls and loop nests containing procedure calls. We introduce two interprocedural transformationsthat mov...
This paper focuses on the performance evaluation of the parallel manipulators for milling of composite materials. For this application the most significant performance measurement...
