We propose a new storage model called MBSM (Multiresolution Block Storage Model) for laying out tables on disks. MBSM is intended to speed up operations such as scans that are typ...
Most research on QoS-aware computing considers systems where code is generally partitioned into separately schedulable tasks with associated timing constraints. In sharp contrast ...

We consider the task of estimating, from observed data, a probabilistic model that is parameterized by a finite number of parameters. In particular, we are considering the situat...
Providers such as YouTube offer easy access to multimedia content to millions, generating high bandwidth and storage demand on the Content Delivery Networks they rely upon. More ...
