A new stochastic clustering algorithm is introduced that aims to locate all the local minima of a multidimensional continuous and differentiable function inside a bounded domain. ...
As the CMOS technology is scaled into the dimension of nanometer, the clock frequencies and die sizes of ICs are shown to be increasing steadily [5]. Today, global wires that requ...
A resource allocation framework is presented for spectrum underlay in cognitive radio networks. We consider both interference constraints for primary users and quality of service (...
Materialized views (MV) can significantly improve the query performance of relational databases. In this paper, we consider MVs to optimize complex scenarios where many heterogen...
