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....
Graph-cuts optimization is prevalent in vision and graphics problems. It is thus of great practical importance to parallelize the graph-cuts optimization using today’s ubiquitou...
Many parallel join algorithms have been proposed in the last several years. However, most of these algorithms require that the amount of data to be joined is known in advance in o...
—This paper proposes the plateau structure imposed by the Pareto dominance relation as a useful determinant of multiobjective metaheuristic performance. In essence, the dominance...
We present an approach to dealing with skew in parallel joins in database systems. Our approach is easily implementable within current parallel DBMS, and performs well on skewed d...
