Abstract— Prefetching is a widely used technique in modern data storage systems. We study the most widely used class of prefetching algorithms known as sequential prefetching. Th...
Today, large-scale web services run on complex systems, spanning multiple data centers and content distribution networks, with performance depending on diverse factors in end syst...

Abstract. Modern description logic (DL) reasoners are known to be less efficient for DLs with inverse roles. The current loss of performance is largely due to the missing applicabi...
Ranking functions are instrumental for the success of an information retrieval (search engine) system. However nearly all existing ranking functions are manually designed based on...
