Parallel processors such as SIMD computers have been successfully used in various areas of high performance image and data processing. Due to their characteristics of highly regula...
Recently, there have been proposals for scaling-up a database system using lazy replication. In these proposals, system scale-up is achieved through the addition of secondary site...
