This paper aims to improve the accuracy of query result-size estimations in query optimizers by leveraging the dynamic feedback obtained from observations on the executed query wo...
The increase of IEEE 802.11’s bandwidth led to a deployment of many multimedia applications over wireless networks. Nevertheless, these applications impose stringent constraints...
Learning useful and predictable features from past workloads and exploiting them well is a major source of improvement in many operating system problems. We review known parallel ...
