We give the first polynomial-time approximation scheme (PTAS) for the Steiner forest problem on planar graphs and, more generally, on graphs of bounded genus. As a first step, w...
In dynamic environments with frequent content updates, we require online full-text search that scales to large data collections and achieves low search latency. Several recent met...
Management of large-scale parallel and distributed applications is an extremely complex task due to factors such as centralized management architectures, lack of coordination and ...
In this paper, we look at two issues which could affect the performance of value prediction on wide-issue ILP processors. One is the large number of accesses to the value predicti...
Network of workstation (NOW) is a cost-effective alternative to massively parallel supercomputers. As commercially available off-the-shelf processors become cheaper and faster, ...
