Data is routinely created, disseminated, and processed in distributed systems that span multiple administrative domains. To maintain accountability while the data is transformed b...
This paper describes a novel approach to generate an optimized schedule to run threads on distributed shared memory (DSM) systems. The approach relies upon a binary instrumentatio...
We develop an algorithm for parallel disk sorting, whose I/O cost approaches the lower bound and that guarantees almost perfect overlap between I/O and computation. Previous algor...
This paper describes a general scheme to convert sequential ant-based algorithms into parallel shared memory algorithms. The scheme is applied to an ant-based algorithm for the ma...

This paper studies the problem of unified ranked retrieval of heterogeneous XML documents and Web data. We propose an effective search engine called Sailer to adaptively and versa...
