This paper presents a method for designing the illumination in an environment using optimization techniques applied to a radiosity based image synthesis system. An optimization of...
The traditional focus of relational query optimization schemes has been on the choice of join methods and join orders. Restrictions have typically been handled in query optimizers ...
This paper introduces a new approach to database disk buffering, called the LRU–K method. The basic idea of LRU–K is to keep track of the times of the last K references to pop...
