We focus on unreliable asynchronous shared memory model which support only atomic read and write operations. For such a model we provide a necessary condition for the solvability ...
Partial replication is one type of optimization to speed up execution of queries submitted to large datasets. In partial replication, a portion of the dataset is extracted, re-org...
We consider a system in which many users run queries to examine subsets of a large object set. The object set is partitioned into files on tape. A single subset of objects will b...
Informed prefetching and caching based on application disclosure of future I/O accesses (hints) can dramatically reduce the execution time of I/O-intensive applications. A recent ...
