Many distributed multimedia applications have the ability to adapt to uctuations in the network conditions. By adjusting temporal and spatial quality to available bandwidth, or man...
We describe SCC-kS, a Speculative Concurrency Control (SCC) algorithm that allows a DBMS to use efficiently the extra computing resources available in the system to increase the l...
Originally, genetic algorithms were developed based on the binary representation of candidate solutions in which each conjectured solution is a fixed-length string of binary numb...
Genetic algorithms—a class of stochastic population-based optimization techniques—have been widely realized as the effective tools to solve complicated optimization problems ...
The need for service providers to offer SLAs to gain consumers confidence has become increasingly apparent. Our work focuses on providers who manage the execution of long-running d...
