Today's database management systems (DBMSs) are required to handle diverse, mixed workloads and to provide differentiated levels of service to ensure that critical work takes...
The motivation of this paper is to obtain an analytical closed form of a quadratic objective function arising from a stochastic decision process with bivariate exponential probabi...
Geographic Information Systems (GIS) are increasingly managing very large sets of data and hence a centralized data repository may not always provide the most scalable solution. H...
Hiding communication latency is an important optimization for parallel programs. Programmers or compilers achieve this by using non-blocking communication primitives and overlappi...
Cloud computing has emerged as a preferred platform for deploying scalable web-applications. With the growing scale of these applications and the data associated with them, scalab...
