Implementations of map-reduce are being used to perform many operations on very large data. We examine strategies for joining several relations in the map-reduce environment. Our ...
Many bioinformatics studies require the analysis of RNA or DNA structures. More specifically, extensive work is done to elaborate efficient algorithms able to predict the 2-D fold...
Prefetching has been widely used to improve system performance in mobile environments. Since prefetching consumes system resources, such as bandwidth and power, it is important to...
In recent years, a number of link scheduling algorithms have been proposed that greatly improve upon traditional FIFO scheduling in being able to assure rate and delay bounds for ...
Medical image reconstruction remains a topic of interest to medical researchers. Although the algorithms have become more mature, one particular challenge has persisted over the de...
