Histograms have been widely used for fast estimation of query result sizes in query optimization. In this paper, we propose a new histogram method, called the Skew-Tolerant Histog...

Abstract Many reliable distributed systems are consensusbased and typically operate under two modes: a fast normal mode in failure-free synchronous periods, and a slower recovery m...
- In order to enable fast deployment of new emerging services over multimedia radio networks, it is important to design an efficient service-based platform with necessary traffic m...
This paper describes BoostMap, a method for efficient nearest neighbor retrieval under computationally expensive distance measures. Database and query objects are embedded into a v...

Following up on a recently renewed interest in computational methods for M/G/1-type processes, this paper considers an M/G/1-like system in which the service time distribution is ...
