Coloring Away Communication in Parallel Query Optimization
We address the problem of finding parallel plans for SQL queries using the two-phase approach of join ordering and query rewrite (JOQR) followed by parallelization. We focus on t...

The Compositional Far Side of Image Computation
Symbolic image computation is the most fundamental computation in BDD-based sequential system optimization and formal verification. In this paper, we explore the use of over-appr...

Planar Scene Modeling from Quasiconvex Subproblems
In this paper, we propose a convex optimization based approach for piecewise planar reconstruction. We show that the task of reconstructing a piecewise planar environment can be se...

A Randomized Cutting Plane Method with Probabilistic Geometric Convergence
Abstract. We propose a randomized method for general convex optimization problems; namely, the minimization of a linear function over a convex body. The idea is to generate N rando...
