With the total energy consumption of computing systems increasing in a steep rate, much attention has been paid to the design of energy-efficient computing systems and applications...
Portable embedded systems are being driven by consumer demands to be thermally efficient, perform faster, and have longer battery life. To design such a system, various hardware un...
Minimizing power consumption is of paramount importance during the design of embedded (mobile computing) systems that come as systems-ona-chip, since interdependencies of design c...
Promising the combination of dynamic configuration, scalability and redundancy, peer-to-peer (P2P) networks have garnered tremendous interest lately. Before long, this interest ex...
We study the problem of query optimization in federated relational database systems. The nature of federated databases explicitly decouples many aspects of the optimization proces...
