When Java was first introduced, there was a perception that its many benefits came at a significant performance cost. In the particularly performance-sensitive field of numerical ...
Modern servers access large volumes of data while running commercial workloads. The data is typically spread among several storage devices (e.g. disks). Carefully placing the data...
Maintaining an asset with life-limited parts, e.g., a jet engine or an electric generator, may be costly. Certain costs, e.g., setup cost, can be shared if some parts of the asset ...

— We study problems related to supporting multicast connections with Quality of Service (QoS) requirements. We investigate the problem of optimal resource allocation in the conte...
We present an algorithm that minimizes the expected cost of indirect binary search for data with non-constant access costs, such as disk data. Indirect binary search means that sor...
