Heterogeneous multiprocessors are growingly important in the multi-core era due to their potential for high performance and energy efficiency. In order for software to fully real...
This paper proposes a spatio-temporal macroprogramming paradigm for push-pull hybrid wireless sensor networks (WSNs). The proposed paradigm, called SpaceTime Oriented Programming ...
Current federated systems deploy cost-based query optimization mechanisms; i.e., the optimizer selects a global query plan with the lowest cost to execute. Thus, cost functions in...
