Value-maximizing deadline scheduling and its application to animation rendering
We describe a new class of utility-maximization scheduling problem with precedence constraints, the disconnected staged scheduling problem (DSSP). DSSP is a nonpreemptive multipro...

Distributed query sampling: a quality-conscious approach
We present an adaptive distributed query-sampling framework that is quality-conscious for extracting high-quality text database samples. The framework divides the query-based samp...
