A critical step in all quartet methods for constructing evolutionary trees is the inference of the topology for each set of four sequences (i.e. quartet). It is a well–known fact...

We address the problem of finding parallel plans for SQL queries using the two-phase approach of join ordering followed by parallelization. We focus on the parallelization phase a...
IP multicasting has naturally been considered the ideal technique to be used with multimedia communications. Unfortunately, current multicast protocols do not consider the dynamic...
We show that the neighbor-joining algorithm is a robust quartet method for constructing trees from distances. This leads to a new performance guarantee that contains Atteson's...
Phase change memory (PCM) is an emerging memory technology with many attractive features: it is non-volatile, byte-addressable, 2–4X denser than DRAM, and orders of magnitude be...
