SQL tuning--the attempt to improve a poorly-performing execution plan produced by the database query optimizer-is a critical aspect of database performance tuning. Ironically, as ...
The Constant Bandwidth Server (CBS) is an effective scheduling technique frequently used to handle overruns and implement resource reservation in real-time systems where tasks hav...
In this paper, we describe the use of an evolutionary algorithm (EA) to solve dynamic control optimization problems in engineering. In this class of problems, a set of control var...
