We pose the question: how do we efficiently evaluate a join operator, distributed over a heterogeneous network? Our objective here is to optimize the delay of output tuples. We di...
Hierarchical approach greatly facilitates large-scale chip design by hiding distracting details in low-level objects. However, the lowlevel designs have to have a global view of h...
Logic duplication is an effective method for improving circuit performance. In this paper we present an algorithm named SPD that performs simultaneous placement and duplication to...
Recent work in sensor databases has focused extensively on distributed query problems, notably distributed computation of aggregates. Existing methods for computing aggregates bro...
While the IP unicast service has proven successful, extending end-to-end adaptation to multicast has been a difficult problem. Unlike the unicast case, multicast protocols must su...
