The maximum rank correlation (MRC) estimator was originally studied by Han [1987. Nonparametric analysis of a generalized regression model. J. Econometrics 35, 303–316] and Sher...
— Accurate query performance prediction (QPP) is central to effective resource management, query optimization and query scheduling. Analytical cost models, used in current genera...
— We study hybrid search schemes for unstructured peer-to-peer networks. We quantify performance in terms of number of hits, network overhead, and response time. Our schemes comb...
In this paper we introduce the iTask system: a set of combinators to specify work flows in a pure functional language at a very high level of abstraction. Work flow systems are au...
