Sensor networks and other distributed information systems (such as the Web) must frequently access data that has a high per-attribute acquisition cost, in terms of energy, latency...

Abstract. This paper shows how a sparse hypermatrix Cholesky factorization can be improved. This is accomplished by means of efficient codes which operate on very small dense matri...
The k-MST problem requires finding that subset of at least k vertices of a given graph whose Minimum Spanning Tree has least weight amongst all subsets of at least k vertices. Th...
The query optimizer of a database system is confronted with two aspects when handling user-defined functions (UDFs) in query predicates: the vast differences in evaluation costs b...
Many new Java runtime optimizations report relatively small, single-digit performance improvements. On modern virtual and actual hardware, however, the performance impact of an op...
