In this paper we deal with the problem of finding an optimal query execution plan in database systems. We improve the analysis of a polynomial-time approximation algorithm due to M...
In a shared-memory multiprocessor system, it is possible that certain synchronization operations are redundant -that is, their corresponding sequencing requirements are enforced c...

The performance of a collaborative system depends on how two mandatory collaborative tasks, processing and transmission of user commands, are scheduled. We have developed multiple...
An important scheduling problem is the one in which there are no dependencies between tasks and the tasks can be of arbitrary size. This is known as the divisible load scheduling ...
Techniques to reduce power dissipation for embedded systems have recently come into sharp focus in the technology development. Among these techniques, dynamic voltage scaling (DVS)...
