A view selection algorithm takes as input a fact table and computes a set of views to store in order to speed up queries. The performance of view selection algorithm is usually me...
We present RSIO, a processor scheduling framework for improving the response time of latency-sensitive applications by monitoring accesses to I/O channels and inferring when user ...
Real-time, online multi-player games are becoming increasingly popular due to advances in game design and the proliferation of broadband Internet access. However, fairness remains...
For priority based buses such as CAN, worst case response time analysis is able to determine whether messages always meet their deadlines. This can include system models with boun...
Abstract. A Service-Level Agreement (SLA) provides surety for specific quality attributes to the consumers of services. However, the current SLAs offered by cloud providers do no...

Spatial databases are entering an era of mass deployment in various real-life applications, especially mobile and location-based services. The real-time processing of spatial quer...
As the bandwidth of CPUs and networks continues to grow, it becomes more attractive, for efficiency reasons, to share such resources among several applications with the minimum le...
Portals are one of the rapidly growing applications on the Web, providing a single interface to access different sources (providers). Providing fast response time is one of the c...
