We introduce StarFlow, a script-centric environment for data analysis. StarFlow has four main features: (1) extraction of control and data-flow dependencies through a novel combina...
Hash tables are one of the most fundamental data structures in computer science, in both theory and practice. They are especially useful in external memory, where their query perf...
Power management has become popular in mobile computing as well as in server farms. Although a lot of work has been done to manage the energy consumption on uniprocessor real-time...
