Most database applications are designed according the ANSI/SPARC architecture. When it is used, a large amount of semantics of data may be lost during the transformation from the ...
Abstract. Physical database design tools rely on a DBA-provided workload to pick an "optimal" set of indexes and materialized views. Such an approach fails to capture sce...
Scaling feature size improves processor performance but increases each device’s susceptibility to defects (i.e., hard errors). As a result, fabrication technology must improve s...
In the past, Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) circuits only contained a limited amount of logic and operated at a low frequency. Few applications running on FPGAs consumed exc...
ReAgents are remotely executing agents that customize Web browsing for non-standard resource-limited clients. A reAgent is essentially a "one-shot" mobile agent that act...
