A way to optimize performance of relational row store databases is to reduce the row widths by vertically partitioning tables into table fractions in order to minimize the number ...
Our goal is to develop a robust out-of-core sorting program for a distributed-memory cluster. The literature contains two dominant paradigms for out-of-core sorting algorithms: me...
We consider a system where each user is in one or more elementary groups. In this system, arbitrary groups of users can be specified using the operations of union, intersection, a...
In Hierarchical Mobile IPv6 (HMIPv6) networks, the mobility anchor point (MAP) is introduced to localize binding update messages destined to the home agent. In a large-scale wirel...
Let X be a discrete random variable with support S and f : S S be a bijection. Then it is wellknown that the entropy of X is the same as the entropy of f(X). This entropy preserva...
