Data consistency is very desirable because strong semantic properties make it easier to write correct programs that perform as users expect. However, there are good reasons why co...
The exponential growth of databases that contains biological information (such as protein and DNA data) demands great efforts to improve the performance of computational platforms...
In this paper, SIMD and MIMD solutions for the realtime database management problem of air traffic control are compared. A real-time database system is highly constrained in a mul...
Background: Large-scale sequence comparison is a powerful tool for biological inference in modern molecular biology. Comparing new sequences to those in annotated databases is a u...
Big data is the tar sands of the data world: vast reserves of raw gritty data whose valuable information content can only be extracted at great cost. MapReduce is a popular parall...
