We present a semantic caching approach for optimizing the performance of information mediators. A critical problem with information mediators, particularly those gathering and int...
As technology advances into the nanometer territory, the interconnect delay has become a first-order effect on chip performance. To handle this effect, the X-architecture has been...
In this paper, we address the interconnect-driven floorplanning problem that integrates OPC-friendly bus assignment with floorplanning. Buses consist of a number of horizontal/v...

This paper envisions a distributed network storage service with Quality-ofService (QoS) guarantees, and describes its architecture and key mechanisms. When fully realized, this se...
Query processing techniques for XML data have focused mainly on tree-pattern queries (TPQs). However, the need for querying XML data sources whose structure is very complex or not...
