A mechanistic view of software component assembly implies exact matching and fitting of the particular components. We argue that components for large-scale software construction s...
This paper deals with the evaluation of acyclic Boolean conjunctive queries in relational databases. By well-known results of Yannakakis [1981], this problem is solvable in polynom...
This paper describes PRISM, a distributed sharedmemory architecture that relies on a tightly integrated hardware and operating system design for scalable and reliable performance....
Scalable shared-memory multiprocessors that are designed as Cache-Only Memory Architectures Coma allow automatic replication and migration of data in the main memory. This enhance...
Good network hardware performance is often squandered by overheads for accessing the network interface (NI) within a host. NIs that support user-level messaging avoid frequent ope...
