Previous studies have shown that object-oriented programs have different execution characteristics than procedural programs, and that special object-oriented hardware can improve p...
We present a “black-box” approach to estimating query cardinality that has no knowledge of query execution plans and data distribution, yet provides accurate estimates. It doe...
This paper presents a semi-supervised learning (SSL) approach to find similarities of images using statistics of local matches. SSL algorithms are well known for leveraging a larg...
The number of processors embedded in high performance computing platforms is growing daily to solve larger and more complex problems. However, as the number of components increases...
The popularity of distributed file systems continues to grow in last years. The reasons they are preferred over traditional centralized systems include fault tolerance, availabili...
