We present new algorithms for local planning over Markov decision processes. The base-level algorithm possesses several interesting features for control of computation, based on s...
Because changes to the database (DB) and workload occur during a DB system's lifetime, the physical DB design must evolve to sustain good performance. These changes are carri...
Desktop conferencing systems are now shifting from strict view-sharing towards relaxed "what-you-see-iswhat-I-see" interfaces, where distributed participants in a real t...
Many communication-centred systems today rely on asynchronous messaging among distributed peers to make efficient use of parallel execution and resource access. With such asynchron...
Using FPGAs to accelerate High Performance Computing (HPC) applications is attractive, but has a huge associated cost: the time spent, not for developing efficient FPGA code but fo...
