Multiport memories are extensively used in modern system designs because of the performance advantages they offer. The increased memory access throughput could lead to significan...
Well-designed indices can dramatically improve query performance. Including query workload information can produce indices that yield better overall throughput while balancing the...
In main-memory databases, the number of processor cache misses has a critical impact on the performance of the system. Cacheconscious indices are designed to improve performance b...
In recent years there has been considerable research on automated selection of physical design in database systems. In current solutions, candidate access paths are heuristically ...
Self-calibrating designs are gaining momentum in both the computation and communication worlds. Instead of relying on the worst-case characterisation of design parameters, self-ca...
